Son esas pequeñas cosas las hacen que valga la pena vivir.

Don't think your going to get close without that mumma cat pouncing on you! She's like stay away from my precious babies :-) This was a stray cat who was pregnant. My kindhearted sister-in-law took her in to have her babies. To date, all the babies have been adopted through Petsave and the mom is now there waiting for a good home. I hope she gets adopted as whe is a lovely mild mannered kitty. If you are interested, you can find this cat through this website:http://www.smallthings.ca/

 

my friend stephanie made all these ceramic flowers. we have an ugly chandelier in our dining room, so i put her flowers on it and it looks better now.

Love all of God's creations, both the whole and every grain of sand.

Love every leaf, every ray of light.

Love the animals, love the plants, love each separate thing.

If you love each thing, you will perceive the mystery of God in all

 

-Fyodor Dostoevsky

Las cosas pequeñas me hacen muy feliz. No sé por qué, pero algo muy extraño me provocan xD!

Crecimos creyendo que en algún momento viviremos o tendremos algo grande que nos hará eternamente feliz.

Pero finalmente descubrimos que en ese tipo de cosas está la felicidad: En las cosas pequeñas.

 

This is a small leaf between the finger and thumb of a small boy taken with a camera with a small lens.

Met a new friend this morning, he was a bit shy and he didn't say much

"The joys of life are hidden in small things,

No one knows the happiness a tiny moment brings,

The slightest of a gesture of love,

Takes us to the seventh heaven and above...

These are the things that make life beautiful,

Lived once and remembered always as wonderful!"

Shreya Koppaka

Life's little things that we rarely see or ever stop to look at, unless you have a macro lens and go pottering about your mothers garden out of boredom.

Observations:

This moss is normally a brilliant green and was a few weeks ago.

We are in a really dry spell and I noted that the moss was brown.

 

Reading up on Moss, it does go dormant in dry spells.

eastvanjam: Love those!!!

  

One of the easiest way to get interesting pictures is to get a macro lens and point it to something small.

 

The world of panoramic is big. But I can tell you one thing. The world of macro is even bigger than it.

 

The small snowdrop is the sign of early spring and it is my favorite subject this time of the year.

 

Have a great start of the week!

 

This is my shot taken at Queen Elizabeth Park yesterday with the 105mm macro lens. Let's take out all our macro lens and do the "first come first shoot" in spring!

about 30 seconds before this shot was taken this bull ant bit me on the thumb .. that was about 5 hours ago and my thumb is still swollen & sore .. i'm grateful i saw him otherwise i would have been worried that something poisonous and possibly deadly had bitten me .. coz it sure did hurt .. !!

the blood is artistic licence .. i was surprised that he didnt draw blood coz of the pain, but after googling bull ants just now, i found out that they dont bite, they sting with their rear end!

used another photograph of the grass i was sitting in as an overlay ..

What Hobby found with her camera!

I think this is the smallest Lego piece.

Still life photo or a wee pink clam shell I found when walkabouts with the camera.

The first time I saw the surface texture of a poppy seed, it was through a microscope. You can just make out the polygons in this picture. Now I can take a close up with my camera (without the microscope, of course) and get so much more detail, it is amazing.
