[QUOTE="WeeHector, post: 194059, member: 14301"] I live alongside a canal and work at a marina about 200 metres away. It would be easy to assume that there isn't much to photograph and yet you would be wrong.This afternoon, I set off just before 2 pm and came across this little chap.

It didn't stop him hanging around to say hello. [ATTACH=CONFIG]50924._xfImport[/ATTACH] On my way home, I met with the first disappointment of the afternoon. There are now 3 hawkmoths which feed on the flowers in the baskets on the bridge, but they fly off as soon as I lift the camera. I will get them one of these days.
