And sometimes I take pictures of something other than sheep, dogs, and landscapes. Today, when I picked some purple thistle, I unknowingly brought home a guest. This tiny (about 1/2 long) green spider came with them.
I have the utmost respect for those photographers that specialize in macro photography. Getting some tiny critter to sit still while you focus is really a challenge. This little guy also refused to sit on top of the thistle, and presented his (or maybe her) posterior to the sky while he tucked his front end under the thistle head. That's why you see mostly his abdomen and the back part of his cephalothorax. Maybe he's just shy. Who knows.
Anyway, I captured nice, crisp pics of his several parts...just not all in one photo. 😞
