This little guy sat patiently while I shot him from several angles. His profile is his best side, though. :) Macro photography has always been my strongest passion in the field. Something about capturing the details we overlook in everyday life appeals to me. I’ll be honest: I simply...

For having such a strong aversion to spiders, I sure do take a lot of photos of them....
Four Eyed

Leaving church last Sunday, I found this guy staring at me on top of my car trunk. He is miniscule but my natural fear of spiders makes me very aware of their presence around me. In fact, just today, I had to make Jeremy pull over into a neighborhood after Thanksgiving with my family so...
Moon Edge

The allure of macro photography lies in the finest details missed by the eye, even when looking closely at something amazing. This is the Luna moth’s wing edge. It’s so fine.. like it’s made of paper tape. Love...

I was out taking photos of pretty flowers… …and I accidentally took a picture of this little guy. Check out this 100% crop of the above photo. Man he’s like staring angrily at me and everything. Or posing. It’s hard to tell with spiders....
The Deck

My deck houses two things. Some plants and some spiders. My chinese bellflower has grown so much and is ready to put out blooms! Here’s its first bud. I am super excited to see them bloom! I got to relax a bit last night but today’s been a whirlwind again. I’m not sure I’ll be...

Sometimes I look back at my photos from a few years ago and marvel at what I was able to accomplish despite my limited tools. This daddy long legs macro was taken using a 4.1 megapixel hewlett packard point and shoot. It had a 1 inch screen. Yeah, check out this beast: I...

The nearly clear legs of this spider accent the background so well! By the way, I pretty much hate spiders and had to take this from pretty far away....
Italian Insect

These little hornworms that live on the roses turn the colors of whatever it is they’re eating. This one made it through a few leaves before moving on to the rose petals. This was taken using my point n’ shoot… before I managed to get a giant scratch on its tiny lens. I have no idea...

I’m starting to work with some premium filters and love the end results. They really speed up my workflow for a lot of things. Here’s a butterfly I’ve shot before. I liked the bokeh on this...
Painted Butterfly

I accidentally posted this on flickr already so I might as well drop it on here too. This butterfly was enjoying the african daisies in my front yard when I was watering outside. It’s tiny but I managed with a 12mm extender on my 50mm lens. I did take like 100 shots and this one was the only...
