Description
Giornata strana, pareva indecisa tra nuvole e foschia , ma dopo le 8.30 una fitta nebbia ha imperversato nella zona , arrivando tra le abitazioni ( fenomeno abbastanza infrequente ). Visto che il fenomeno era insistente ho deciso di partire in cerca di qualche angolo caratteristico. Ho sbagliato direzione , dove sono andato ha vinto il sole , mentre , in lontananza la nebbia pareva più fitta . Ma sono stato ripagato per la buona volontà con alcune ghiotte occasioni .
La prima rappresentata da questa splendida farfalla che non aspettavo ancora nella zona e anche una farfalla molto gentile che si è venuta a posare vicina e dopo i primi scatti ha cambiato la posa volando a meno di un metro . Poi , fatti i nuovi scatti è sparita e non l’ho più vista nei dintorni . Ma ho visto un ranocchio che faceva il furbo nell’illusione di sfuggire al mio obiettivo . ( Ma questa è un’altra storia , ne parleremo poi ). Naturalmente , non è finita lì .
Strange day, seemed torn between clouds and haze, but after a 8.30 in thick fog has raged in the area, coming from the house (actually quite uncommon). Since the phenomenon was insistent I decided toleave in search of some characteristic angle. I was wrong direction,where I went he won the sun, while in the distance the fog seemedthicker. But I was rewarded for the good will with some deliciousopportunities.
The first represented in this beautiful butterfly that is not expected yetin the area and even a butterfly that has been very kind to pose closeafter the first shots and has changed the installation flying at less thanone meter. Then, without new pictures is gone and I have not seen her around. But I saw a frog who was a clever illusion of escape frommy goal. (But that's another story, we'll talk about later). Of course,did not end there.
