Tripod Canon 7D Canon 180mm macro ISO 400 1/250 sec f8
Another shot taken by my garden pond. Usually the darters have not been obliging, coming to rest on sandstone rather than a perch where I can get a clearer view. As soon as I saw one land here I moved into position and waited for the return. I had previously double checked my camera settings because the programme ring can easily get knocked and you can find yourself in the wrong programme, it was just as well because it stayed just for a couple of frames and did not return to this perch again, it is the seed pod of a flag iris.
All C&C welcome.
