Clearing out old files, still, I came across some shots of greenfly from May and June and thought they made a set of greedy, green, garden pests. With apologies to all the gardeners out there.
A couple of these shots are as much if not more about the background than the aphids themselves.
They are a little bit pretty seen singly like this? Not convinced? 😉
Over on my Facebook page I am giving away a 2014 calendar to one winner chosen on Monday next week from those who nominate a Surrey beauty spot. Do visit if you’re local. I am planning to compile a list of nominated Surrey locations to photograph in 2014, with a view to making a 2015 calendar from the best images.

Wow great photo! I love the colours. Please check out my blog at http://www.inspiringthroughthelens.com
Thank you.
If you could see the lace patterns on my cabbage, kale and chard, you could have warned me!!! 😀 Though I suspect these guys, or their cousins probably had a whole lot of help from the snails and slugs.
The lace pattern is definitely the slugs and snails. Aphids suck the leaves which makes then look withered/distorted. I know, from bitter experience! 😉
beautiful shots…
Thank you.
Ps tried to comment on your blog but the screen kept freezing. I will try later when I am at my desktop.
Only you can make a garden pest appealing and gallery-worthy!!
He he. They are quite pretty close up. Pesky, but pretty.
They’re a real nuisance but you’ve given them character!!
