Taken from my doorstep and trying to not let my hand shake.
Since my hands have been so swollen and numb I have reverted back to my small handbag camera for all my photography as my Canon is too heavy to hold.
Well done, Wendy. This is so lovely and shows it is not necessary to have a huge camera to obtain great shots. Hope you get some relief for your hands soon.
Wonderful macro shot - a great capture. In this day and age it is not the tool(camera ) but the ability of the photographer . - which obviously you have in abundance . Love the lacy wings ! big fav
Sorry to hear about your hands. However it just shows that you can take a brilliant photo with whatever camera you have in your hand. This is absolutely fantastic
Your pocket camera does a great job. I love the details on his "tail"! I'm sorry to hear about your swollen hands. Sometimes you can deal with the aches and pains of knees and hips but it's really rough when it's your hands. I will be keeping you in my prayers- as I usually do!
Great shot. I understand the issues - two back surgeries in 13 months for me makes many things difficult - and my little Lumix comes in mighty handy at times.

Thankyou for your kind comments and Favs they are all very much appreciated. I have RA for the last 7 years and painful hands and wrists and various other joints have all become much worse this year and along with waiting for a knee replacement I have not been feeling so good. After a recent visit to the hospital to see a consultant and taking various medication that has caused other problems to my eyes and lungs I have been prescribed biological injections once a week. My fourth will be tomorrow and at last I am feeling a slight improvement. I am hoping in the coming months I can say goodbye to pain and have more mobility.
@wendyfrost My friend was moved on to the biologics after years with other RA medications. They have been brilliant and made all the difference for her, so I truly hope that works for you too. Much love and cheering you on xxx
@wendyfrost I am glad to hear you are seeing some improvement with this treatment and hope that it continues to give you back your mobility and allows you to be pain-free. I know it's been difficult but you keep trying your best to get out and photograph and that's a huge part of the road to health- doing things that make you happy. God bless you!!
A lovely capture
