Good day all , just before the rain started i went in to the garden to see if i could spot some interesting things for macro photogrpahy this morning.
i found this small hoverfly resting on the tip of a verbena leaf, it looks like a
Platycheirus albimanus , but i could be wrong.
Unfortunetly i wasn't able to get a good top side picture for determination.
New growth on the rose
Shield bug on the catnip plant
I'm not sure yet what the scientific name is, if you do know the name let me know in the comments. At the moment i think it's the Stictopleurus abutilon.
All images are created by me with my Sony A7II + Laowa Venus 25mm f/2.8 2.5-5x Ultra Macro with 2.5 - 5x magnification + Godox tt685s flashunit and Pringlers diffuser + Laowa LED ring
