Intimacy with Insects

Posted by rocksea on 21 May 2006 | Tagged as: photography, prakriti

Intimacy with the subjects you photograph makes the whole activity warm and memorable.

I was photographing this lonely lady bug (ya thought of giving some company) …

lady-bug-1 * Lady Bug @ Hokkaido University Botanical Gardens, Sapporo. * 1024 x 766 * (138KB)

.. and it flew on to my white jacket and started climbing up so close to the camera that I could get only one shot of it

lady-bug-2 * The Lady Bug flew on to my jacket while I was photographing it. Hokkaido University Botanical Gardens, Sapporo. * 1024 x 766 * (75KB)

So I could get two contrasting buggy shots of the same subject in different environments

    hi
    the photograph looks fentastic, it has the true potencial of a man who looks at nature as the wonderful work of God, which is matchless and enticing.Keep it up and do tell me how you take such marvellous photos with feelings and awe.do tell me the way you take things into perspective.
