Hey there fellas,
When I finally got in bed last night, I knew that I would not be able to stay awake to watch the Women's soccer game. And that was at 1 am. I think the game started at 3 am our time! I am glad that I didn't try to stay up, but the final result could have been worse, we could have LOST! I am glad, Dave, that as you explained, we now advance to the KNOCKOUT rounds where we will face a very difficult opponent. I hope it is not the"showers" for the Americans who I read looked sluggish and unorganized. Here's hoping that in the next few days they get their MOJO back.
Dave, That is ONE EXCELLENT shot of the spider. I take it that is your normal lens and not a macro. The clarity and details are impressive. I really like grays and brown together. It is such an excellent combination. You bokeh is sup too and definitely allows one to concentrate on the super sharp icky spider!
Rich, WEre you on the course when you took this shot, or was this a drive by. The haze adds a nice mystic mood. It is a beautiful gold course. I especially love the composition of the second image, that fence is cool. Did you use to play, or will you get back to playing golf when your hip is 100%?
I will add a busy little bee to this insect thread.
I took this the last time we were up north. The darn bees were too busy to hold still though, I was lucky to get this one.
