Well my raw files are typically underexposed, with improper contrast, saturation etc., and editing/masking with Lr is usually necessary to end up with clean pictures. This one is already neat without any editing.

That's probably the cleanest raw file I've ever produced 💚

That’s true ! They shed part of their beak after summer. More info here :

Photography of a damselfly hiding behind a rush stem. The big blue eyes are peaking on each side of the stem.

When May comes around, don’t forget to teach your children that you can play hide and seek with the damselflies 🪻

A frog in it’s pond. Unbothered. Moisturized. Happy. In it’s Lane. Focused. Flourishing.

Frogs are so busy these days they really don’t care about a big indelicate photographer getting really close, and that’s another good reason to love spring 🌱🐸

Close up portrait of a palmate newt, with shiny eye and granulated skin

Two years ago I installed a pond in a half whisky barrel in the courtyard of my urban house, in the Midlands. Just rainwater and a few plants potted in a basket filled with local soil.

And look who visited the watermilfoil the other day: a little palmate newt!
