All the Small Things

"The grass is not, in fact, always greener on the other side of the fence. Fences have nothing to do with it. The grass is greenest where it is watered. When crossing over fences, carry water with you and tend the grass wherever you may be." -- Robert Fulghum , It Was on Fire When I Lay Down on It

What I love about nature photography is that there is not much left to do but capture the beauty that is presented to you. Nothing ever comes close to what the natural world has to offer; it is spectacular at every level. And speaking of levels, I took it one step closer with my close-focusing Sigma 70-300mm APO Macro lens. It isn’t true macro photography but its close. I’m hoping that I’d have the time, patience and discipline (to wake up early) to shoot more of this kind of shots.

And I promise that I’ll take pictures of butterflies next time.

  2. W-O-W. i just love the colors. the details are like screaming invites to go and have fun outdoors! yeah...walking around slowly, and pausing where the eyes catch a glimpse of something that tickles the mind and warms the heart, to spend moments gazing and gaping at the little spectacles of nature! you're gifted,
