Activities during the break

Bearing in mind that one keeps a respectful distance from passers-by, some of us can still venture out to remain photo-active more locally. My favorites include the Tyndale monument, or views from the Cotswold Way towards Bath or Bristol, or some of the Brecons’ escarpments. For me, the next few days though, the challenge is some bench top photography and tweaking off camera lighting. Anyone else got some interesting ideas?Stay safe, keep well,Graham

This is a good shot of the bee Neil - I like it. As you say surprisingly difficult to do. Well done!

Another try at getting a good shot (in focus) of a bee with a 50mm Macro lens. Surprising how difficult it is...

Been meaning to try this for a while, but surprisingly difficult. Used a Sigma 70-200 lens with a Cokin polarising filter

I use an app called Dark Sky as I could see nothing due to cloud cover. However there was a break around midnight. This was when these were taken. Played around with the manual settings f5.6 - f8 @ around 1/125 -1/400, focal length between 300 - 500, the Camera setting ISO around 320 or so on Auto
