My 1,000 Post!!

[sm4him]

Just realized today that I was about to hit 1,000 posts; guess that means I plan to stick around here a while!

Thought about what to post and decided on this funny little out-take of a photo. I was playing around with the new macro lens, sitting in the clover field waiting to find critters to shoot. In between critters, I took a few of some of the clover, working on a getting a black background.

I took this shot, and didn't realize until I got inside and saw it on the computer, that while I was looking at the clover, something IN the clover was looking at ME!

Congrats, on your posts and your lens

Cool number (now at 1002!) and cool photo. Funny find, isn't it: you thought it'd just be a flower and what is there? Something tiny staring at you.
Wish I had a macro lens...

Congrats on 1002 and neat shot I love finding stuff like this! I'm with Corinna, I want a macro lens!
Oh and by the way, in your other thread you mentioned about getting bit on the butt sitting in the grass to shoot, I bring a small roll up yoga mat with me, better than a blanket and easy to carry etc...

Thanks, all! Love the Horton Hears a Who visual--looking at this photo in a whole different way now!

PixelRabbit: I actually have little roll-up self-inflating stadium seat I keep in my bag; I love it because it rolls up small enough to fit in a lens compartment, and then inflates itself when you unroll it.
But, since I was "just" going out in the backyard for a few quick pics before scouts, I didn't intend to sit down in the middle of the clover field, so I didn't bring my bag out with me. Next thing I know, I've gone from shooting anything at eye level, to squatting, and then just plopping down in the clover!

But, I CAN be taught--I've been taking my stadium seat out with me since that episode .
And the bite went away with no ugly red streaks or anything to cause concern.

Ah cool, nice option, I like the yoga mat because I can lay right down on it and get lowwww

Trever, I have NO idea what it is, but based on Compaq's comment, perhaps it's a Whoville Dragon.
