Walking through my yard yesterday, I tried to just sit in one spot with my camera, and take in the small things around me. After about thirty seconds, I got really bored, and moved to a different spot. I did that a few times, and though my concentration upon a single spot wasn’t exactly perfect, I did get the chance to see some things that really popped out at me as amazing.
Gravel can actually be quite beautiful, if you take the time to find some colorful pieces…
Have a good day, all!

I like your bug! Nice colors, nice pattern.
Thank you very much. š
You got some great shots out of the ‘little’ things that so many of us over look. If we took the time to appreciate the ‘small’ stuff, most of us probably wouldn’t need so much ‘big’ stuff.
Indeed. I appreciate you comment. š
love that stones..! nice

Thanks awfully. š
I love the simplicity of the photos, and of all your photos for that matter. They are all so great, I especially love the one of the bolt with the rust and aged look. Its just great.
Yes, that bolt really jumped out at me for its vibrancy. Thanks so much!
Fantastic š Love the beetle! The stones & the bolt. All of them really š
Thanks, I was actually quite happy with the stones, if I may so myself… š
I love them all! Excellent work! I am going to try doing the same exercise. I have feeling I will get bored too but not if I am hobbling and need to rest:)
Haha, yes, it can sometimes be hard to slow down…and thanks so very much!
When I first saw the photos in my email I really liked the bug one, but looking at them again now, I’m totally in love with the gravel photo. It’s so… fresh. If that makes sense.
Totally makes sense, and I appreciate it. š Thanks for stopping by!
Great photos, and I love the simple idea of just sitting and taking everything in. My favourite is either the second one or the blue flower. Both are excellent (sorry, both are MORE excellent than the others:). ) I really admire your style of photography.
Bye, E
Thank you so much. I really appreciate your feedback. š

I do this aaall the time without a camera =)
Love the bug.
Well, good for you ‘Sta’. And thanks so much. š
That’s a fantastic idea. And some lovely photos as reward. And a good approach to many things!
Thanks awfully, I really do appreciate it. š
Oh and btw the colorful bug looking like he was hanging on for dear life was my favorite š
Haha! He does kind of look like that. I never thought of that… š
These pictures ARE amazing!
Thank you for sharing them! š
Thanks!
These are great! Whenever I start to feel like I’m rushing through my photos, I do this same thing. It really makes you slow down and pay attention to the details.
Exactly! It was actually really interesting seeing some things I’ve never really payed attention to. Thanks for the feedback! š
