The incredibly fine, and no doubt lightweight, lattice structure of this dragonfly's wings was absolutely fascinating to me in one of those rare moments where I got to observe it so closely whilst it rested.

Something as simple as a torn piece of paper becomes full of intricate detail when viewed through a macro setup. For some reason this particular one isn't triggering any pareidolia in me, but I still find it satisfying just for the textures mottled hues.

This beautiful white tulip with purple pink accents seems to coyly reveal its central stamen behind a curling petal.

A beautiful female Sumatran Tiger enjoys a quiet pause in the sunlight. As the mother of the most recently born cub in Tierpark, I'm sure any moment of respite is welcomed.

Britzer Gardens in Berlin has a large area of rhododendra planting, and I was delighted to spot this bunch of blooms poking out from under the shadowy canopy and catching the light so beautifully.

Moving easily amongst the trees, this ring-tailed lemur was beautiful to watch. Another endangered species which I hope places such as Tierpark, where this particular lemur is housed, can help to protect and recover.

A palm tree in Mallorca pops its head over the parapet of the Es Baluard Museu d'Art Contemporani in Palma, Mallorca. I liked the odd combination of colours, shapes and textures.
