Photos: Macro Yard

Some more macro photos from our surban yard, here in Corvallis.


Milkweed Bug: no, that's not blue sky but rather a dog dish. It pays to plan your backdrops.


Crab Spider: trying to make a web on a fresh pine tree sprout.


Fly: Eating another fly on a flower, hmmm ... I didn't know they did that.


Butterfly: A tiny butterfly in the backyard. Angie spotted this while I was mowing the lawn. Glad I grabbed the camera, nice setup.


Ant: a common black ant on a pest infested leaf. I liked the pattern in the leaf so I added some color using photo filters. Just wish the ant had more detail.

These are all great as usual. I captured a couple yesterday in my own yard. It seemed that a wasp was trying to build a nest. I'm not sure as it's on a plant, and I can't imagine that would hold a very large one. It actually came out ok, as I took it hand held, and I'm such a shaker. ;)
