#61 Peacock Butterfly
Hey folks, I’ve been trying to get a good shot of one of these stunning butterflies since they started appearing a few weeks ago. They are truly stunning – I keep looking at the image and thinking it isn’t real, the patterns on it’s wings look they were painted on! They’re all over the place […]

#60 Creep Thistle
Hey everyone, hope you’re all well? This beautiful little plant is the creep thistle, which is a bit of a mean name if you ask me! It’s a lot smaller (and not as jaggy) as the typical Scot’s thistle, Scotland’s national flower (I would have went with something else personally – we definitely have some […]

#59 Red Clover
Hey all, hope you had a nice weekend 🙂 After posting some nice shots of white clover a while back I had been keeping an eye out for some of it’s red counterpart and came across this beautiful specimen. They’re actually quite different close up which I hadn’t noticed before – the joys of macro […]

#58 Jewelled Amanita
Hey folks, hope you’re having a nice day 🙂 It might be pretty but this is one mushroom you don’t want to be eating. It’s called the jewelled amanita because as it ages the cap develops little white straight-edged blisters that look like jewels. It’s not as deadly as some of it’s relatives in the […]

#55 Wild Raspberries
Hi everyone, I’ve been out foraging these tasty little beauties this week, they are everywhere at the moment. Enough so that when I’m out walking or taking photos of other things I still end up eating a lot of raspberries! I don’t know if it’s just psychological but the wild ones taste far nicer to […]

#54 Little Tortoiseshell
Hey folks, hope you’re all good 🙂 Today’s post is a gorgeous Little Tortoiseshell butterfly captured while out walking. The background is a bit messy which is a shame but this little critter was too pretty not to share so here you go! Thanks for visiting, Kaylin x

#52 Fairy Dust
Hey everyone, hope you’re all well 🙂 Today’s photo isn’t a particularly fancy shot, or technically impressive – I just think it’s kind of nice 🙂 I was trying to capture the light passing through the spider’s web (that I nearly walked into) and managed to capture the ethereal forest dust against the darker background […]

#51 White Clover II
Hello all, hope everyone is having a good day 🙂 More clover today. I’m quite stunned by how pretty these flowers are and that I haven’t noticed until now! I think that’s one of the great things about photography in general but particularly macro photography – you get close up to things that you’ve probably […]

#50 White Clover
Hey folks, hope everyone is well 🙂 A macro shot of some lovely white clover today. This stuff is everywhere at the moment. I hadn’t noticed the beautiful coral-red colours on the inside of the flower before now, they are absolutely stunning. Edible as well I think, though I haven’t tried any yet! Thanks for […]

#38 Nettle Weevil
Hey folks, another little weevil for today – this time a Nettle Weevil (Phyllobius Pomaceus). Aren’t the colours beautiful? I love seeing insects up close like this, they’re often not as icky seeming when you can get a closer look at them I think. With some definite exceptions – earwigs completely freak me out, for […]
