Description

After several failed attempts on consecutive days I finally got a pic. It was always too windy or too dull till today, and it still required me to trap two dog leads with my feet in order to hold both the camera and branch still...very tricky!

That's what it is, and an interesting curiosity of a capture.. nicely done under not exactly comfortable position.

More lichen/fungi from the forest surrounding Andrea's vast manor. It took a lot of gall to get close enough for this sterling macro.

I don't know, I get the overwhelming feeling of a collection of belly buttons. And they are all 'outies'. Really fine work especially considering the conditions under which it was taken.

Well done getting this! Half the time I just hand the leash to Bill and say, "Here ... YOU take her!" She jerks the lead at just the wrong time. I'd not thought of standing on the damned thing. Thanks for sharing the excellent pic, and the tip on "Photography with Dogs!"
