Following on from my previous post about the beautiful wood that I found, I went back and got a few more shots, again with the intention of shooting the gorgeous bluebells, but I found this dandelion among them, on it's own, so I thought this would be a good metaphor for being yourself and standing out from the crowd.
Again, it was beautiful down in the wood, although second time around I took a shorter path and didn't have to walk up one side and down another.
I walked passed a field that was full of dandelions in there seeding state (I'm not sure of the correct terminology), however, I shot the above shot and I zoomed in to see how sharp it was, and I was so suprised by what I found....
There was a very small fly/moth on the dandelion head, I never even knew it was there while I was shooting the photo, and only saw it in post-processing. I used Lightrooms tools to enlarge the crop, I love this pic.
Almost on every leaf there was a creature of some kind, spiders, flies, butterflies and everything else, with it being in the blaring afternoon sun though, they were very active and so it was a bit of a chore trying to capture some of the creatures.
Overall it was another great walk, I do love it in those woods and there's still lots of it that I haven't seen. I won't be going back for a bit though as I've injured my knee and it's really painful even getting in and out the car, so hopefully it won't be long before I make a recovery.
I'm hoping to get out tonight and shoot the Aurora as it's been forecast to be seen over the UK tonight, hopefully it won't be at a stupid hour.
Thanks for reading,
All the best :-)
