These were a little larger than the ones I ate in the teriaki. And these were still raw and wiggling.

.... yet we don't see it.

 

Stop ... look inside, and ask yourself; If you can do ONLY one more thing, what would that be ?

 

And when you start doing what your heart says, you will understand the beauty of life.

this may actually be a Blackish Meadow Katydid .. its very hard to identify .

I finally met baby Amelie!! Shes so sweet! (and a little bit grumbly in this pic!)

Such a joy to meet up with Jess again (at an appropriate social distance ofc) and finally have a proper catch up! I've missed seeing her everyday, she's such a bright gem <3

And would you look at that! Amelie fits this week's theme of Small Things XD

And the air was full of Thoughts and Things to Say. But at times like these, only the Small Things are ever said. Big Things lurk unsaid inside. - Arundhati Roy (The God of Small Things)

 

I am grateful for the small things in life, because for me it is the small things that make life worth living. Seeing a flower on a beach, some pebbles, or the small acts of kindness that I witness all the time amongst friends, especially the friends I have made through Flickr, these small things add up to something very big and special indeed.

For a manager at T-Mobile who is very patriotic about being from Cornwall! I'd have loved to have included the Cornwall flag too, but just didn't the time to add it in! This is a 8" and 6" chocolate sponge, filled with vanilla orange buttercream, and crumb-coated in chocolate ganache buttercream! Totally edible, seashells are made from a 50:50 sugarpaste/gumpaste mix.

this is a red-back spider . they are very venomous and potentially deadly to the very young, old or weak .. you could end up in hospital after receiving a bite ..

greg was cleaning up some pots and came across this one .. she was extremely large for this sort of spider, being about 3.5mm or 1.5 inches including her legs .. he then went and put on gloves .. !!!

of course i risked death or excruiating pain to take her photograph, being as close as i could get with the 100mm macro .. which is probably less than 6" ... they dont jump .. !!

she is now in spider heaven ..

i overlayed a paper texture found here ... NinianLif

I can't tell you where I got these quotes from, I seem to have forgotten to write down the source (but I'm guessing either from someone on flickr or a facebook friend) so if you wrote them or know who did, please post in comments, thanks!

 

I really like the first quote, it makes me feel like I don't have to worry as much as I do and that I can just start over tomorrow if things don't go so well today.

This small Limax Maximus was crawling around on the BBQ late the other night. I came out to shoot some images of a larger slug on the ground but this one seemed to be the more photogenic of the two.

These were shot at night with my Canon Digital Rebel on Macro mode using the on camera flash. I switched between manual and autofocus. Not my best photographic work by a long shot but still somewhat interesting, I think.

take note ! it's the world's SMALLEST pencil.

unfortunately, no world's smallest pencil sharpener.

pulling bark off a dead tree and we found this spider .. i've tried to find out what he was but i'm not sure .. he could be a tarantula or an extremely large wolf spider .. he was LARGE .. about 2" or 5cm across - including his legs ..

the workflow is in the photographer's comments in dpchallenge .. just click on the thumb and it will open ..

i used a ghostbones texture in my processing ..

also used a photograph of some grass in our yard and a spider's web .. not this spider's web ..!!.. ..

Well, I wanted to take some pictures of the windowbox collembola to prove that they are EVERYWHERE. I set up the camera and found this elongate, but when I magnified the live view, I found this other, globular, springtail which was too small for me to see with my eyes alone. [Actually, if you know where to look, you can just about see the white spots if they are moving.]

 

I think the globular is Sminthurinus trinotatus based on the spots on its head and body but the elongate - which is out of focus here shall remain anonymous.

1/2 inch flower under amy bellows flashed with my ringlight

Very small living organism, since I couldn't get into the lab for C. elegans or some shots of tissue.

 

Thanks to Eric for providing the strawberry, and Justin for playing photography intern!
