Bad Blip Day

I must have taken at least 200 images today, none of which were any good.  Bad focus, bad lens choice, bad ISO, bad F stop, you name it, it was bad.  I've been trying to learn about depth of field, and I can't seem to get it right.  It turned out good in the end - I just calmed down, got a few good shots of skinks, bless their hearts.  My best skink shot is in Blip (of course), but here's another one I liked.

I also got a good bee shot, plus a few general ones of the garden, primarily for Wayne who's overseas right now, and is missing the best of the flowers.  I still have to get the definitive bee shot though, and that's I want to get better depth of field, so I can get more in focus.  Of course all these images are better large.

And finally here's a couple of the front garden.  The flowers in the centre are all leaning away from the oak tree to get more sun.
