Found the butterfly floating in one of our bird baths, picked him out thinking he was dead only to find out he was still alive, so I put him in a nice warm spot to dry out and he flew away 15 minutes later. As for the spider, this guy/girl has been making HUGE webs in our backyard for the last week now. I have never seen a spider this color before so I has to get a few shots.

Location: My Backyard
Equipment: Canon 350D, Nikon 50mm f/4 Manual Focus Macro Lens.

Just a fly that was buzzing my head, he tried to eat me alive. The insect followed me into the room and then into the bathroom, so sorry he had to be taken down.

Shot with a Canon 350D (Digital Rebel XT), Nikon manual focus 50mm Macro lens with a 1:1 adapter.

I have three images up for voting right now, trying to get them published in JPG Magazine. Images have to be part of a theme and those that get enough votes and good reviews by the staff get published, a free subscription and this month a chance at winning a copy of Photoshop CS3 and Photoshop Lightroom.

You will have to register to vote, it only takes a few minutes, if you are wanting to help me get some more work published and to see what the other photographers are uploading stop by the JPG Magazine website and register.
