Just arrived here in Iriga City where we'll spend the night... covering the Penafrancia Fluvial Festival in Naga City is tiring but fulfilling.. just seeing those millions of devotees to the Virgin Mother, braving both the rains and dead heat just to take a glimpse of the "Ina" (Our Lady of Penafrancia) is really humbling and uplifting.
I'll try to post some photos tomorrow.. I really need to hit the sack.. been awake for 32 hours...hehe
Tomorrow we'll be going to Cagsawa Ruins in Albay to get a chance to shoot the famous Mayon Volcano ...if the weather permits. Looks like a tropical storm is approaching the Bicol Region.
Euphorbia, the latest addition to my small garden of leafy ornamental plants. Hoping this would help in bringing back the bees and butterflies.
ID would be welcomed on this jumping spider (Salticidae).
Went on a photo walk in Parc du Bois de Liesse looking for dragonflies and right from the start I stumbled onto two beautiful jumping spiders, patrolling different parts of the same wooden lookout. This is the second of them, and I wonder whether or not it's the same species as the first one. This one has much more white (including a spot in middle of the head), but the color of the body and the markings on the back are similar... This spider was super inquisitive and jumped onto my lens several times. :)
Tamron Adaptall SP 35-80mm F/2.8-3.8 (01A), plus Adaptall SP 2X tele-converter (01F) and Raynox DCR-250. 1.5:1 macro ratio, plus since the background is nothing but black, I allowed myself to crop to almost 11MP (out of a 16MP original).

Biene beim Landen auf TĂĽrken - Mohn. Ein recht begehrtes Ziel der verschiedenen fliegenden Insekten
eastern tailed-blue butterfly on rudbeckia in a favorite cambridgeport garden. this small gorgeous butterfly kept my attention and i got a number of great shots in a 15-30 minute period late this morning. first time i remember seeing this type of butterfly.
This idea came from some similar shots taken by a Flickr friend of mine, Ozark Bill. He has some unbelievable macros. www.flickr.com/photos/ozark_bill/
I had never seen one of these before.
I wish I had more dof here, but it was terribly windy, so this is the best I could do.
My manager at work loves black licorice (and so do I). I am always on the look out for new types to give her. This one was from W Germany.
this little aphid was in a pink and white rose, but when I put my lens between the petals to get closer, the lighting changed, resulting in this yellow and lavender shot, resembling the famous canyon smoothed by years of water erosion. I posted another shot of this scene under the same title back in June of 2009. See www.flickr.com/photos/gab57/3596081935/. It is still one of my favorite shots. Many photographers have taken a photo of the actual Antelope Canyon, but since I may not get out there to do the same, I feel fortunate I have this substitute in my own neighborhood.
Refreshing...The name rain lily initated due to the habit of this plant which normally produce more bloom after the rain. Happy Thursday everyone...Cheers, Ringgo.

I liked this bubble reflection the best because of the hidden face in there! I love finding faces in things :)
Things are really getting heavier on my plate right now... so I hope you'll forgive me if it may take time for me to visit your streams... but I do look forward to seeing your wonderful works, as well... just be patient with me.
Have a Great weekend, my dear friends!
Distinguishable Spider...Jumping spiders are among the easiest to distinguish from similar spider families because of the shape of the cephalothorax and their eye patterns.
