We came across what were previously known as 'boingy flies', those ones that fly up and down, up and down, and I decided to try and get a shot on my phone. One out of 8 sort of caught something and I thought they looked liked fairies. The colours and background were terrible, though, so with the aid of Nollie's favourite smoke effect...
So many beautiful portraits and ideas! Sorry I have not been on here much, but I have not had much free time. The frog made me laugh, @fire - I had not realised re the smile - very subtle!
Sorry to witness the demise of the forum. 😥😥😥😡😡😡I am Spartacus
Well that flumoxed it, @Fire. Probably because it couldn't work out what was foreground and what background, it just blurred the whole lot. I tried various effects but it's such a bad photo even LunaPic struggled. Feel free to try anything you like with it though, but I warn you, it's not my best!
It was the backlighting that made me want to capture them. If we ever get another sunny day (ha ha ha) I'll take my camera so I can get a better depth of field.

They are I think, winter gnats. Much less poetic
