The no-see-um’s

I don’t know why they call then “no-see-um’s because you sure could see them last week at Wingaersheek Beach. In more than 20 years, I have NEVER seen such a swarm. This has to be the most patient family. We were everywhere trying to avoid the cloud of bugs that just kept on finding us. Patience paid off, because their Family Portraits are beautiful and bug free.

The bugs were so bad, it almost looked like snow!

And most of the night was spent like this!

They never dreamed I would be able to create this.

Mark Betts - Hi

That made me laugh, “no see ums ” hahaha

We have loads of flies in the UK at the moment, for a change its really warm here.

Love the beach shots, shame we are over 100 miles from any beach.

Great work.
