Sorting through some photos that I took quite some while ago (you can tell it was a while ago, because it's sunny!), I realised that one has to be very careful when snapping shots of insects with shiny elytra:
 |
| Melanic evil invading Harlequin ladybird |
Yes, that is me reflected in the wing-cases. But I'm pretty sure I'm decent.
I think I'll stick to non-reflective insects in future.
 |
| Far less reflective native British seven-spot |
 |
| Flutterby. Probably a Meadow Brown, but I'm not as good at butterflies. |
