    Wow, that was fast! Well done, Jo!

    Fantastic images, and instantly recognisable style. I have a real soft spot for these tiny jewels, and this kind of creative macro work.

    The coloured bokeh background adds so much to the image — it’s a great comparison showing how a small change can completely transform the mood and impact of a shot.

    I can’t wait until Lilian trains me too 😄 Your results are probably the best advertisement for her course.

    One question: did you create these during the course itself, or are they the result of putting those new skills into practice afterwards?
