Close up photo of a Common Frog taken on the 20th March last year. It's sitting in a pond half out of the water and reflected on the surface, to the right of it is some out of focus frogspawn.

I usually have much better luck with dragonflies in my backyard than butterflies! They seem to sit still much longer, relatively speaking.

Dragonfly with #horizontal wings hanging out on horizontal logs framing my back garden from a few summers ago. I am amazed how the wings blend in with the markings on the log! Not sure what type of dragonfly it is.

Thank you! I think still life photography can be fun and I have the lighting for it, and had originally planned on doing a lot more before AI came along, then I just wasn't sure. πŸ™

Speak up for grizzly bears by urging your members of Congress to oppose the Grizzly Bear State Management Act, which would remove federal ESA protections for grizzly bears in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem.

A huge boulder sits at a tilt on top of a deeply weathered mound of clay or mudstone, which shows a network of cracks. Behind and to the right, on the horizon, rise a number of irregular-shaped hoodoos. The sky is featureless.

So glad you were able to repair it. I really like the varying sizes, colors and textures. I also think it's interesting what displays behind it, like a background commentary.
