If this cloud had been a few feet lower, I think I might have been able to stick my hand into it. You could practically hear the damn thing.
This is the Teasel Patch I used to capture all the macros in. It was a good sized patch with many plants easily over 6 foot tall. Lucky for me there were some closer to the ground that still had some flowers on them.
iPhone 4 to capture and iPad 3 to edit.

This is a prairie restoration area within Black Hawk Park. It's my favorite place to go for bug shooting. When I say I'm going to the patch, my wife knows where I'm headed.
Bordered patch butterfly on Brazilian verbena flower. Shot with Agfa Solinar 1:4.5 105mm mounted on Nikon bellows. Bellows connected to Sony A7 body with Nikon adapter.
Come to the Pumpkin Patch at Seminole Heights United Methodist Church down on the corner of Central & Hanna in Seminole Heights. The Patch will be open 12-8 p.m. Sunday through Friday, and 9 a.m. – 8 p.m. Saturdays until Halloween.
Three EMD SD50-2's and a CSX AC44CW work the north end of McGrew yard shortly after sunrise. In recent times LSRC has been purchasing new units and they have been a mixed bag of patched CSX and NS units and also a few painted units. I will give LSRC credit though as they do patch their units very well.
I think this is Yellow Patch (Amanita flavoconia) mushroom.
Photo taken hand-held. Amazingly, I was able to align and focus stack 9 photos, one of which had to be manually moved and masked. Then, I used a touch of an AI brush to clean up the mess between the focus and out of focus layers. HSS!
looking west ward towards Staten Island...
this is as pretty as it gets in Brooklyn ;) so that's why I'm always on a look out for stormy days...
Waiting at the tram stop and looked up to catch this brief patch of light in Bourke Street. Canon S100.
A former Conrail C40-8W and a SD60M led a NS C44-9W on a southbound Canadian National run-through freight back in 2005.
Even though they were patched for new owner Norfolk Southern, the blue beasts were still a nice sight when compared to that monochromatic thing third out.
Wearing patches over its DMIR paint, EJ&E SD-M #804 sits at Kirk awaiting its next job. Built as DMIR SD9 #169 in April 1959, this unit now works for IBCX.

I'm a member of the non-profit society, The Barbados Photographic Society. Part of our activities for members includes having field trips for members to go around the island exploring. Sometimes, our field trips veer off into strange territory....
After I ended my short documentary series on the "Fire at Mangrove Pond", my friend and I headed off to our second location. My photography club had an invite and a challenge from one of our members to shoot within his backyard compound. Such a small space but rather rewarding. I was trying to do two thing at once: Shooting still abstracts and shooting video to practice my technique.
Final shot of this series on texture. This caught my eye and I snapped this on pure instinct. I didn't think too much when I got it on the computer ...until I decided to convert to black and white. I still wasn't sure if it made a great standalone image. Maybe it just belong as part of the ensemble of images and that's fine too.
Feel free to comment below with your ideas on what some of these things are. Good luck!

The valley sides were lit up with strong patches of sunlight this morning as was the grasses at the roadside.

This photo features the Crimson-patched Longwing (Heliconius erato), taken at the Emerald Valley Nature Center, Lake Yojoa, Honduras. Capturing the vivid red patches against the delicate black wings of this butterfly was a thrilling challenge. The setting provided a lush green background, making the butterfly’s colors pop. I used a slow shutter speed of 1/60 second to capture the fluttering movement of the butterfly, combined with an aperture of f/11 and ISO 800 to ensure a deep depth of field and crisp details. The Canon R5, paired with the RF 100-400mm lens and a 1.4x extender, allowed for an effective focal length of 560mm, essential for this close-up.
From a photographer's perspective, this image highlights the delicate balance between technical settings and the subject's natural beauty. The butterfly, in its later stages of life with parts of its wings worn, tells a story of survival and grace. Emerald Valley is a prime location for butterfly photography, thanks to the conservation efforts led by Robert Gallardo. His dedication to preserving these species is evident in the thriving butterfly population at the nature center.
