This is my second entry into todays #monomad photography challenge. I wasn't exactly happy with my earlier post into the #monomad competition so I have worked into the we small hours to bring you this one which I captured today. I've given it a very slight sepia cast which I like and hope you do too.
It has been pretty cold in the UK today but the sun was out and so were some fly insects.
Here is a focus stacked image created from 39 separate shots at F8, 1/2sec, ISO200.
