Insects

Okay, I admit these images are not that good. I thought they would be better but, I didn’t use my tripod. It was in the trunk of my car and I should have remembered I had it. Anyway, both images were difficult to take (if I can use that as an excuse). The bee-looking insect was about the size of a small housefly on a branch that swayed in the wind while I stood in 90 degree sunlight, sweat literally running down my body as I tried to take a decent pic. The other image was surrounded by more leaves full of the insects and I was not interested in finding out if they would jump from their location onto my then sweating body.

Tonight was much better for picture making. I went to some gallery openings and saw some friends and chatted up the evening. I’ll post some of the pics over the weekend from the mostly drawing works I shot at several galleries on Thursday and Friday.
