V asked me for photos... I tend towards journalistic photography, but fortunately there isn't a lot of excitement in my life. :) So how about a few flowers and butterflies? Perhaps I could top it off with a bunny and a sunset? This bee landing was shot in downtown Fredericksburg, Texas at about 12:30 with a zoom set to 320mm.



This macro shot is from the garden at my office.
This is a female polyphemus moth; notice that the "eyes" are transparent. This is NOT a macro shot: The moth is on a 4x4 post. It's bigger than my hand!

How do I know it's female? }:>

Cuz I saw it laying eggs!


These irises are from the garden behind Greater Grace Coffee Shop in Fredericksburg. You should visit!




























These pictures were all taken outside the front door of my office; the butterfly was most cooperative, and posed quite well for me. (The flowers behaved demurely, too.)

I'm sorry, I can't find any bunny pictures right now, and I'm going to bed. Maybe my next post will be more sunsets, or some of my friends in interesting poses.
