A Fleabane tortoise beetle (Cassida Murraea) on some fleabane (who'd have thought it?)

Tortoise beetles have quickly become one of my favourite type of beetles

A little flower crab spider hiding out in my hydrangea. This was a very young one, and was absolutely tiny

I've been neglecting my Pixelfed entirely too much recently (I'm awful at social media), so here's a Green Shieldbug (palomena prasina) hiding in a fading camellia flower. From earlier this year.

A ladybird (or, as my toddler now calls them, “lellybuds”) out in the garden. It’s great to see how many we have and, thankfully, they’re almost all native seven-spot ladybirds, with only a single Harlequin so far this year.

Got myself some Harman Phoenix before it all went out of stock. A very interesting film stock, still clearly experimental and a WIP but in an endearing way. Very strong halation, but I like the fairly natural colours.

It almost looks like a bleach bypass film, without the bleach bypass, which is pretty cool.
