A bit of macro lens and tripod practise in the garden, with varying degrees of success!
I'm going down to the Somerset Levels on Wednesday, with the tripod owner - I've had my friend's tripod and 18-270mm lens on loan for about 18 months but as she's finally recovering from a long awaited operation on the shoulder, I expect her to reclaim them before too long.
We're hoping to see the dragonfly roost, which she says is the best it's been for 4 years. I'm picking her up at 4:30. That's 4:30 am. Very am...
