I know I haven't posted any pics for a while, so maybe it's time to share some of the ones I took over the last couple of months.

Here they are:

Outstanding work!!! If you are not a professional Photographer then you missed your calling. What kind of lens do you use? Keep the shots coming because your talents are wonderful.:)

Kirsten

Thanks. :)

For these, I used a Tamron 60mm f/2,0 Macro lens. Got it only a couple of weeks ago and was testing it, that's why I took so many pics of small things lately. :o

Amazing pics, VERY professional.

Do you have a different angle on the lady bug? Had an article in our newspaper just last weekend that the 9 spotted lady bug is disappearing world wide. So now every time I see a lady bug, I want to know how many spots! LOL

Kirsten

Thanks! :)

Well, will try to find out re. the ladybug. I have some more pics, going to take a look now...

Here's another pic. You can't see it very well, but I think ours have seven spots.

Kirsten - I'm so glad to see that you're back and posting more fabulous pics. I saw the ones of the girls too. You certainly do have a way with a camera! :) Keep them coming - I never get tired of seeing all of your subjects.

I love lady bugs. I just ordered a lady bug anklet to go w/my lady bug tiny pendant. They're all great pix, Kirsten.

Wow, Kirsten, these are fantastic! I've missed your photography, please post more pictures whenever you get the chance.

These are great, even though I am not a fan of bugs. :p

Teaching a grandson about bugs is a job for only grandma's. ;):D

Kirsten, Siegmar and I are always stunned by your pics. Not only do you have the eye- but also the technical skills to support it. Never seen a flie like that :)

Such detail, absolutely beautiful! You really are good with a camera! :)

I have only once tried the macro on mine, but when I see these, I feel like trying again.

Kirsten

Thank you. :) Glad you like them, I was a bit worried some of these little critters might me somewhat creepy.


Is this what you do for a living?

No, I don't, it's just for fun and to distract me from the daily worries. :)

Oh my goodness, Kirsten! These pictures are amazing! Now I would like to have two books of your photographs - one of Luna and Lily and one of all your other subjects!

Yes, those do look like 7 spots.

WOW, I have never seen lady bugs in a "pod" like that, amazing! I put pod in quotes because I don't know what the proper term should be.

Kirsten, your photos are grand!
