Walking Stick


~ 90 day blog challenge: day 36 ~

This little inch worm (that looks an awful lot like a twig) was having a nice stroll in the sun today, this first day of summer.  Many thanks to a fellow photographer who let me borrow his macro lens to capture this little guy in action.

Speedy


~ 90 day blog challenge: day 35 ~

As I was waiting for my husband to come revive a dead vehicle, I decided to be productive and take a bazillion images of a caterpillar, who was moving a lot faster than my truck was.


Techie Corner
Yep, there was no way this image was going to be tack sharp considering I had to shoot hand-held at 1/20th of a second and he was moving at lightning speed...for a caterpillar.

Down the Drain


~ 90 day blog challenge: day 34 ~

I drove to work today in a torrential downpour.  When I got out of my truck on the fifth floor of the parking ramp, I was mesmerized by the swirling vortex of water being sucked down the parking lot drain.  I was determined to get a picture of it.  

Unfortunately, I mis-judged the depth of said vortex.  I was totally focused on the image I was trying to capture and figured if the soles of my shoes got wet, so be it.  Not until I felt the water hit my ankles did I realize that this parking lot lake was at least 6 inches deep!

I hate soggy tennis shoes, but the damage was already done.  So, I stood there, ankle deep in cold water, taking several pictures of a parking lot drain.  Yep, anything for the shot.  And I'd do it again too, although I think I would go barefoot next time.

I spent the rest of the day going squish squish squish down the halls.  Good times.
