Macro/Close Up

[nwoods]

I am jealous at some the places you have been for photos and would love to do a photo 4 wheel trip sometime. It really is a different trip when the light calls the photographer to set up immediatly.

I hope everything works out for you and if you ever want to take a day or weekend trip with photography in the mix I am in!

Sinhue (sin-way) is an interesting guy and an amazing photographer. If I had the coin, I would be all over this.

My last trip to Utah was breathtaking

That looks like an awesome trip but I just can not get off work for that long that soon... Maybe if I hit the lotto tonight? :>)

This guy crawled across my hand when I was moving a box today. I jumped and it went squish. That sucks cuz he's a really gorgeous spider.

Just a few from my flickr stream... Now only if I had a proper Macro lens... Oh well, I'll probably a super wide angle before that anyways... <sigh> Jeep needs my money more than my camera :-)

Having Monday's off is giving me a little more time to take some pictures.






Working a little with textures.

Is this a case of Spider pattern baldness?

One more. When you shoot macro you never know what is going to wind up in the picture. I was shooting this bady lug out on the Mojave Trail, and never even saw the fly until I processed the "film".
