Thanks Mark. You set the standard for this kind of work and I'm having fun trying to get somewhere near what you do with the gear I have.

These are great Greg and my immediate thought was they were based on Mark's composition. Not sure whether he has upgraded but if you go on his site Nature's Place - Macro Illustrated you will see his amazing shots are taken with fairly basic gear.

Thanks Gabby. Yes I've certainly been influenced by Mark's work and find that standard as something to aspire to.

As you know I'm a nature lover and have a go at capturing everything and anything. I'm delighted by subjects that others pass by.

Cheers and have a great Christmas and new Year.
