I like the grainy effect on these shots, high ISO, post-processing?

A bit of both, a very cloudy morning before the rain so higher iso ( I was using manual with an auto iso), I liked the effect as I was post-processing.
Also possibly to do with my zoom being at its limit and then zooming in post production.
Still learning about all this stuff so lets call it experimentation and a happy accident

So having become fixated with macro photography I have bitten the bullet and made the full jump from Nikon to what is now OM Systems (previously Olympus). OM-1 Mark II and 90mm macro lens arriving tomorrow. Very very excited.

No idea what happened there - hat was supposed to say "Excellent shot - I've heard good things about that set up" but for some reason it ended up in the post I quoted - oops!

Haha no definitely a butterfly. I wondered moth at first but it held it's wings upright.
Thanks!

Having looked a bit closer, I think it is actually an Essex Skipper as it has a black tip on the antennae.

I presume an Essex Skipper is more widespread than just Essex? The picture was taken in my mother in law's garden in Lancashire.

Small Skipper
Bright orange-brown wings held with forewings angled above hind wings. Males have a thin black line through the centre of fore-wing. Essex Skipper is similar but has black tips to the antenna (best-viewed head-on) and shorter scent brand which runs parallel to forewing edge rather than angled...
Any opportunity for low comedy...
