I was looking for bug to photograph when all of the sudden I saw this wasp hanging upside down from a flower petals, I am not sure why, she was alive, overtime I flashed she would move her legs. I felt so bad for her that I wanted to do something to help, she end up in the ground!

macro focus mode, a few seconds, color correction, a bit of contrast... and voila

Mushrooms in Feanwalden during sunset

While I was cutting the single white rose I spied this single pink flower on a bush which was slightly overhanging from my lovely neighbour's garden. I couldn't resist it and so surreptitiously leaned in and cut it too. I'm not at all sure what it is. It's like a cross between a peony and camellia. Lovely pinkness though and very welcome in grey, cold January. :-)

Is it not ironic that I had not utilized a great photographic resource that was available right before my house? It is indeed ironic that it took me so long to really 'see' the drumstick tree infront of my house. I have observed and complained a lot of times about the amount of caterpillars that the tree was throwing up. Never did my mind make the connection that caterpillars meant only one thing... A whole lot of butterflies!!!

 

It is indeed a treasure trove of various activities and I spent quite a while shooting pictures from this tree and hopefully I will be able to harness more from this 'great' tree.

 

(P.S: I also realized only now what my photography sir used to keep saying. Our photographic subjects are all around us. It is just a matter of us opening our eyes to see them!)
