Bright, flat daytime light is possibly some of the worst light for capturing images. It makes for pleasant walking conditions, especially when there is a breeze, but capturing images – it can be a nightmare. Today I found myself facing such conditions whilst enjoying a walk around the grounds of Charlecote Park. Fortunately the remaining flowers were in areas where this light didn’t cause too many problems and so I was able to make a few images of a very obliging Red Admiral butterfly and a gate crashing bee. As for the suffering – I knelt on a a very low stinging nettle in shorts whilst trying to capture some images of the fallow deer – not to be recommended.

You have some lovely images to show for it, but I hope there were plenty of dock leaves nearby! I got stung by a bee for the first time yesterday when photographing some picturesque hives.
Thanks….it is a while since I have actually photographed deer so I was a bit rusty – plus I suspect the nettles wouldn’t have stung me if I have been wearing trousers! Perhaps I should get the knee pads out when I used to make a lot of images of deer.
Probably you should, but you never know when those knee pad seconds might make the difference between a good shot and a great one!
