A hoverfly settled to feed on this small clump of verbena waving gently in the breeze.

Hi Ian,
I like your composition and background. There's a little motion blur, but it adds to your narrative of a breezy day........................Jim

Very pretty, Ian. I like the head on comp, the very pretty verbena, and the bg. You did well under the challenging wind/light conditions. I would prefer the HF to be sharper, but don't see how you could have done anything to get the HF sharper and still maintained the nice detail in the flowers.

I like the way the verbena comes into your frame from the right, different.
Good colors, BG, & everyone calls her 'Wendy'.. or Windy as you say
