    Hi Guys,

    First of all....
    Sorry for not being around that much but work is consuming me for the last few months so it's hard not to be around as often as i would like to be...
    So to Robert & Mike i would like to say a big Thank You! guys for all the work you have done when i can't be around!
    Hope i'll be able to join in a bit more soon!

    As the bugs have not yet arrived in our regions i have to post one from the old files...
    Here's a Mayfly i shot last season.

    Greetings,

    Jeroen Stel

    Lovely sharp image of this Mayfly against a beaut BG. Pity he didn't settle on a more photogenic perch :)

    Good to see you around Jeroen. Your comments and help are always appreciated.

    Nice sharp image with a pleasing BG but my feelings about the perch are exactly the same as John's.
