The spider was sitting on a umbrella, that causes the strange green colour, defending its huge egg. What I like most is that you’re not sure which of its eyes is looking at you.

Walking with my dog I passed under a tree, where this buzzard was sitting. He saw me passing by. I didn’t slow down! I switched my camera on, without looking back, switched the autofocus of and adjusted the lens to 300mm and approximately to 12 metres. Then I suddenly turned around pointed and shot a serie of photos. A fraction, a glimpse, of a second later the buzzard started. This here was the best photo out of six…

That guy was really taking a bath in the flower blossom, turning round! I should have taken a video, but the Canon 400D hasn’t got that feature ![]()

Did you know, that young rasperry stings first are green and later become a dark red colour? I didn’t know that they have tiny hairs too ![]()

Here again, like yesterday’s post it was really important to have enough “dof”. Aperture f8.0 was fantastic here to solve the problem when you’re doing macro-photography. 1/125s shutterspeed was quite ok. Amazing green leave, isn’t it? I really do love the Canon EF 100mm Macro lens!!

For this take I chose aperture f6.3 to have enough depth of field (dof), so that the bee is really sharp.

Taken on an early morning near a small pond.

That’s not a wasp, it’s a kinf of a fly with the capability to hover in the air like a helicopter.

I took this photo with aperture priority to ensure enough dof. The water pearls against the dark green background are great.

I saw that frog sitting on a stone in a small artificial pond in a private backyard.
