Midday, Dandelion, Macro

I’m still get accustomed to going in at 5am for work. Getting out of bed isn’t the issue as I’ve always been up early, it is not having that extra hour before work to post my images. I need to get everything ready the night before…

I’m still working through the images I captured on my walk last weekend. I took a small break during the walk to search an area for a dandelion. I wanted one that was not fully opened. My added bonus was a small spider…

I walked the Mohawk River Trail and it took me a lot longer than normal. I was finding great subjects for the macro lens. I made it all the way to my normal turn-around when I captured the “keeper” image. The one!

Don’t get me wrong, I was happy with a lot of the images I was capturing but this one jump started my brain. The walk back along the trail was at a quicker pace than the first half. I was churning over a haiku to go along with the image.

I haven’t done that in a long time…
