My life-long passion and occupation is entomology. I also love macro photography. All photos here are taken by me in my own garden in Bulgaria.

The first photo I would wish to share with you is a special one. It comes to prove that exciting moments can be captured with seemingly obsolete photo equipment. This is a Hummingbird Hawk-moth (Macroglossum stellatarum) - 18 Oct 2020.

White Plume moth (Pterophorus pentadactyla) photographed on 7 July 2012 in my garden. Very often the delicacy of wildlife is beyond compare!

Photographing plants can turn into a magical and unforgettable experience that can reveal unexpected complexity and simple harmony in one place. This photo is from a very special winter session in February 2014.

My idea is to curate my feed in a way that is intended to deliver an aesthetically pleasing triumph of colours. This is why my next post presents an extreme close-up of a Zinnia flower. The photo is taken on 26 Aug 2024.
