I said i was gonna have some colour next time, so here it is! A little faded for 'dramatic' effect, but otherwise green!

Don't forget to check out my blog! Thank you! 01302012.blogspot.com/

I found this leaf in the car park at Waitrose. Don't ask me why it was special amongst all the other leaves, but it was. I thought it very beautiful. I brought it home and took its photo and now I feel inspired to photograph lots of other leaves. Just like this - on a plain white background, to show off the leaf.

Nice large if you have time :-)

A leaf spotted on the ground today, this leaf is from a sycamore tree I believe.

Found an excellent article on shooting ice today in our new library (photos to come:) Check out the latest Popular Photography magazine. I was pleased to see I had done several of the techniques they suggested, although I didn't need a polarizing filter - no clear ice...

I took this at First Landing State Park on my boyfriends cam.

This was at one of the most interesting and characteristic environment of Bogotá, the humedal. Here, native people call them "nature mirrors".

This Green Lynx spider was basking on this milkweed leaf in luke warm sun rays of dawn.

The best part I like in this picture is that one can count all 8 eyes of this jumping spider!
