... actually, it was red, but I liked the lines and light and shadow more than I liked the red. I know. At the same time, pure black & white didn't fully do it justice either, so I added the slight sepia tone.
I can't be the only one that feels like so much of the beauty of cars has disappeared over the last few decades. There are only a handful of cars out on the roads now that have the same kind of design elements that almost all cars had back then. (back then = 50s & 60s I guess) Cars are so utilitarian now, versus what they were then... a luxury, a head turner, something not everyone had.
I know this bug isn't that old, but it still has some of that legacy. I love my little VW Golf, but it's certainly not in the same category as this guy, design-wise.
Pretty colored bug crawling around on the buds. When these flwers open they will be swarmed by bees and butterflies. This spider was back-lighted rather nicely I think, by the setting sun. I like the translucent legs and the lighted web. I was out last evening trying to find something to shoot. Well, I thought this looked pretty good. Taken at the Center for Environmental Farming Systems site in Goldsboro, NC.
My BUG for Flickr Friday. It is owned by one of my neighbours; besides, I'm not very good at micro-photography.

It was chased by Tina and me.
Had to watch for the copppps
They were working their opppps

LOL! :) Should have seen us trying to get this shot! The bug started to take an exit and we were going to follow, then the driver changed his mind at the last second and so we had to do the same! Then, it took the next exit so Tina gunned it and I got some pictures of it as it drove up the exit. Hehehe! :D
I found these weird bugs on my favorite tree. Does anyone know what these are? Are they "good bugs" or "bad bugs"? They look evil. Especially with that queen-like one in the middle...

Green Shield Bug, ( Palomena prasina ),. This bug usually darkens before going into hibernation and may be deep bronze in late autumn, but at other times of the year it is bright green and unlike any of our other shield bugs. Common in many habitats, including gardens, feeds mainly on deciduous shrubs and tall herds, .....12-14mm,....

Bites from bed bug adult and nymphs. First, second instars of nymphs. Adult bed bug fed on top of left vertical-positioned vein. There was no appreciable size difference between adult and nymph bites. The initial swelling reaction subsides around 30 minutes after bites and feeding. Large red blotches on lower right at thumb base and along lower wrist are birth marks (port-wine stain or naevus flammeus), not bed-bug related.
I watched this creature walk and station itself underneath an orchid leaf. It has grown longer since. I do not know what it is.
