Dragonflies on Parade
Yesterday I went for a personal photowalk at Riverside Park in Roswell Georgia. I didn’t have a particular plan when I left, really I just went to practice and find something different to shoot…and I found it. There were dragonflies everywhere! I love them and I’ve always admired the amazing shots of them that I’ve [...]
VPW – Theme – August – Extreme Close-up
This guy and three of his closest friends decimated two Banana Pepper and one Jalapeno plants in less than a week. We knew something was going on because we could see droppings around the container that the plants were in, but we thought it was a “critter” like birds, chipmunks, something like that.
