Butterfly id

A few taken n the rockery this week.....not the best photo but does anyone know what this is ? [\QUOTE]

It is a either an Essex Skipper or a Small Skipper. There are no sex brands on the wings so it is a female. A definitive identification would require inspection of the underside of the antennae (this isn't a joke!)

Thanks guys. I posted the photo on the Sussex wildlife trust site and they said it was a small skipper.

Shot some British American football today. Always nice to get a long-bomb touchdown thrown straight at you.

I in no way count myself as any sort of photographer but I don't think these efforts taken on my phone camera at The Eden Project last week are too bad.

London Warriors beat London Blitz today to win the Southern division and condemn the Blitz to yet another trip to Glasgow for the play-offs. Photos show the Warriors' receiver in black trying to catch the ball but the Blitz cornerback, ahem, playing 'good defense' (facemask foul that was not given).

There was a great documentary on last night, Imagine: Vivian Maier - Who Took Nanny's Pictures?

Really worth a watch if you like street photography.

Will give this a watch, I've read a little bit about her it's a very interesting subject and debate

I saw that. Fascinating, and a "must watch" if you have the slightest interest in photography. Every image was thought provoking. Not a bad one amongst them. Wonderful studies of people, mostly in black and white.

I'm no great photographer and it's not the most flattering one of my Rosie, but it does make me laugh everytime I look at it. Only editing done was to darken the background to near black and add a bit of saturation to the brown colour

Here's a landscape I took last week with my little compact at Sheffield park. Didn't have the slr with me so fairly pleased with results.
