Doomed

I found this little 'lady' scaling a bramble bush yesterday.
I'm happy to say she survived her dangerous journey Smile

not the sharpest of shots (pardon the pun) but I was astonished to see how close to disaster she was.

Glad to hear it all worked out for her. The close-up bramble really comes across as menacing and you can feel her struggle. love the stretchy legs. Really like this one.

Thank you everyone for your lovely comments and ratings...

Thanks Amanda, it's good to be back Smile

although I did wonder what I'd come back to earlier today... glad to see it didn't stay there very long!

Ian, it's the Sigma 105mm macro (gold band), probably my favourite lens Smile
