Garden: Red Admiral and Red Rose

Warmer hues and smoother detail in large
Extra: Bumble bee and hoverfly on Dahlia

I went for a gentler take on our garden red admiral today... I used a wider aperture for a softer impression, and this was natural light rather than flashed. I'd taken the macro and flash out in the morning, but just took the macro out when the sun emerged in the early afternoon.
