Well, I won a part of a bigger thing, the macro segment of The 2018 Sigma D-Photo Amateur Photographer of the Year.  I’ve not won anything like this before, possibly because I’ve timidly not entered any infrared macro photos in any competitions. There’s even a nice prize lens coming my way.

So check this months D-Photo magazine, turn to page 42 and, look, it’s my butterfly, among some other darn fine photos all plucked from the 13,000+ entries in the competition overall this year.

White Knight

I’ve been rummaging in the ‘never processed images archive’ again.  Around this time in England last year I visited this ferny grave beside a ruined church, where all  names and all sorrow have long since been worn away.

With the IR mod camera, and a 20mm lens.
