Hi, my name’s Chris. I live in the beautiful county of Monmouthshire.
When I was 10 I was given a Brownie 110 for a school trip – not a single shot came out! But ….. the photography bug was born.

Thanks Graham. I’m having fun using my new macro lens (in case you haven’t gathered, lol). It is a beautiful insect but its grub devastates the lily plants
