Fly with fluid droplet. Not sure what's going on here (must find out), but have found that they're much less likely to fly off when doing it.  1D3_4763 by Ed Phillips 01, on Flickr

I'm a bit annoyed with these as i think the colours of the flower overpower the subject, hence trying a couple in monochrome, but i'm not sure if it works. I would appreciate people's opinions on them  1.  IMG_9189 by jimmyb156, on Flickr 2.  IMG_9174 by jimmyb156, on Flickr 3.  IMG_9186 by jimmyb156, on Flickr 4.  IMG_9169 by jimmyb156, on Flickr

I've never seen one of those little fellas! Yeah the colour ones are great. They don't overpower the subject in my eyes, they add an interesting background.
