This was one of my favorite weeks of picture taking! If anybody knows me, they know that I am TERRIFIED of all spiders and bugs. Spiders the size of the head of a pin have literally brought me to tears. When I saw the challenge, I decided to challenge myself to go big and take on my fear. I hope that you enjoy them. NOTE: There was NO zooming involved. I was REALLY that close.
Challenge Guidelines:
Submit 3 photos of bugs*-they may be of the same bug from different angles, or 3 different bugs.
These may be tweaked. They must have some color in them-so no B/W (can have select color) or sepia.
A bug is anything with more than 4 legs that is in the insect world, an arachnid, or any kind of creepy-crawly thing.
Enjoy! And remember, there's nothing to fear but fear itself....
.......and spiders.

ReplyDeleteI'm so proud of you! (Being your roomate in college I'm aware of how monumental this was for you!) *hug*
ReplyDeleteyikes! Does one of the hands in the second photo belong to you?? I think this was my favorite; the hands make a nice backdrop and frame the fuzzy guy really well. The bits of color in the other two are nice also. I actually think that you didnt' need to be quite so close-up--that would give a little more context to the photos.
ReplyDeleteNice Job--way to face your fears!
I love the first one, there is so much hairy detail... I ALMOST want to hold him/her myself.
ReplyDeleteIn the second one the legs are skinny to the point that it is a little creppy... but the all the lines in both the hands and spider makes it a very intresting photo.
Did you hold one of them, if you did WOW you are braver then I.
