Busy Caterpillar

Busy Caterpillar

It seems I’ve been so caught up in the bigger landscapes that I’ve forgotten about the little stuff. A couple evenings ago I walked the bar ditches of a country road, sticking my nose in another world with a macro lens. I enjoyed myself until I knelt down in a patch of bull head stickers. I assume this caterpillar to be a moth rather than a butterfly. It was amazing to watch such a veracious eater, I had all the time I needed to shoot. Man did my knees hurt afterwards. Need to remember to take some knee pads or buy a longer macro.

Retired. Having fun with photography. Journal daily. Meditate daily. Learning haiku/poetry. Have a love for fountain pens.
