The last post for today on what’s been a busy day with the camera.

after the rain

It’s Saturday morning. In between the very welcome showers of rain, I’ve taken the camera into the garden. Still getting hit and miss results with where the focus lands. I’m enjoying the surprises though.

 

cactus flower

The cactus flowers are showing off in their albeit too brief beauty this week, and I’m still attempting to work some magic with the macro lens/adapter set up. A few ants got into the act again today.

a spider, a bee and some flowers

Getting back into the swing of things with camera play around the house and garden. The spider and the carnation shots have had some tilt shift applied. The bee shot is full of layers including Grungetastic effects.

 

nature’s patterns

I found this expired grasshopper outside the house. The patterns on his skeleton are beautiful.
