				Here is another shot from my last visit to the Kew Gardens in London. Its nowhere near my favourite flower shot from that day but its the one with the clearest shot of a bee. Have fun with the weekend folks. See you on Monday

				Welcome back to another week on the ol' blog. Today's shot started off as a nice shot of a flower against what I consider to be a fairly busy background. Since I already had another conventionally (read minimally) processed shot of the same flower, I decided to have a bit of fun with this one. Its the first time in ages I've had to step out of the Nikon RAW converter (Capture NX2) for any of my processing as what I usually do is basic stuff. For this one, most of the work went into the background. As usual all comments and critiques are welcome. Here's wishing you a great week folks!

				I tried my hand at a little birding earlier this year. I must admit that its much harder than it looks. I'm sure i'll get where I want to be though :) Comments and critique welcome as always

				Hope you all had a great weekend. I can't say I got any Pulitzer prize winning shots this weekend but I did do some shooting for a friend and had fun doing it. Here is my offering to start off the week. Hope you enjoy it and the rest of the week.

				I've had a pretty busy week and have neglected to blog much. Here's a shot from the archives that i've been on the fence about. Now that its been posted i'm wondering if desaturating all but the butterfly would strengthen the capture. What do you guys think? Oh, have a great weekend by the way and hopefully get some shots you're proud of!

				This is another shot in the area close to the London Eye. Its quite a long exposure and the white balance was quite different, I processed to give it a feel closer to what my eye saw on that night. Again, I feel that the upload has robbed the image of some of its magic but I hope you enjoy it all the same.
