"Autumn dew"
Reading, Berkshire
UNITED KINGDOM
Something as simple as a wet leaf laying on an outdoor table captured at the right time of day with sunny backlighting can produce astonishing narratives. This is one of my favourites.

"Awoken"
Dilwyn, Herefordshire
UNITED KINGDOM
Early morning produces some warm lighting, so I was up and about and taking garden macro shots. The colours in this tulip, and the rest of the shot, are amazing.

"Last legs"
Dilwyn, Herefordshire
UNITED KINGDOM
The leaves on this branch looked like they were at the end of their life, wilting and looking very haggard. Aside from the lovely pink colours, there is something very sad about this photo.

"Fungal abode"
Waterloo, London
UNITED KINGDOM
I really wanted to distinguish the foreground from the background with these fungi - so I lay quite a way away and kept a relative wide aperture so as the background became abstract.

"Nature's finest"
Reading, Berkshire
UNITED KINGDOM
This is an unbelievable shot. The sky was grey and it was in very low light. Tilting the flash, using a low aperture and a macro lens brings the detail of the spider's body to life.

"Gossip"
Reading, Berkshire
UNITED KINGDOM
Another macro shot, this time without flash. This berry cluster looked really interesting - almost like they were a group of people huddled together.
