@Saturniidae27 thanks for the much appreciated compliment.! it was after viewing macro images by other photographers way back in 2014 that i came to realise that we cant really get to see the beauty and diversity in these tiny creatures of nature through our naked eyes without macro photography... and that was inspiration enough for me to get myself started.!
Brilliant photography Richard, your photography is so outstanding it's better to see in picture than by the eye!
