A Stroll Through Woodbine Park
This is a deliberate attempt at achieving the bokeh effect. Not sure it completely qualifies, but I really like how it turned out. Used the macro lens and deliberately focused on the flower in the bottom of the field of view, and let the rest go diffuse. I like the vague forms of the other flowers, as well as the wisps of long spindly leaves reflecting the light of the evening sun in the background.
Some shaggy-looking daisies found in Woodbine Park. Am guessing that this is a genetic variant of the usual, non-shaggy variety.
A Common Red Soldier Beetle on Queen Anne's Lace, also seen in Woodbine Park. I saw plenty of examples of why this type of beetle is also called the "Hogweed Bonking Beetle". ;-)
