caught this while taking a quick breath of fresh air out back at work. was going to just shoot the blackberry flowers because they're one of my fav's and when i got close this bumble was busy working so i got it too, on the first try luckily because half a second after i snapped it zipped off

this is right out the back door at work. had a lovely rain and it somehow completely flattened the seedhead without koncking them off. i wanted stronger detail on the seeds but don't think i could've gotten it without the flash and i wanted natural light even tho it was low

you can see that when the building was built they dug into the hill and put a retaining wall (on left) to create a "daylight" basement. the otherside of the building (which i live on) the floor of the basement apartments is groundlevel. the slope of my hill is about 1' - 6', not much fun to haul groceries up but good execise

i know there's a sun glint off the lens but i loved the light glowing along the hollow grass stems and leaves so decided to keep it anyway, just because. it looked like some jungles i've been in, in miniature, so i tried to give the shot that feel. the grass stems were approx 1/16" - 1/4" in diameter. thanks for the comments about 'the lunch box', i thought it was totally cool, the food was really good too. i caught, not all that well alas, another bus i've been trying to capture today for those who like them; the '401 fairhaven' is my 'home' route and usually uses the shorter decorated buses as fairhaven is something of a tourist area, being where the alaska ferry ports.

SmugMug > popular > Other > June 20, 2008:  Summer has definitely arrived........113 Degrees today!  So, I decided that a photo with water in it was the only way to go.  

Since I love water, rocks and reflections.....this one fit the bill.  I adjusted the lighting slightly to brighten it up a tad and gave it a frame, but no other PP.  The sun reflecting in the water added its own processing.
