random, new lens experiments and rambling

This is a drive-by photo, taken from the car.  This enormous Caterpillar sits in a field.   Its size defies logic.  And in its own way, it is beautiful.  I imagine I am about as tall as the scoop, or whatever that is called.  Blade.  I think it's called a blade.  I am impressed with how the lens & camera grabbed the image!  Maybe now I can go whale watching and have the whale show up larger than 1/2 inch.
Forever fascinated with insects and flowers:  Imagine gathering in such fantastical environments!
Eggs.  Yes, one of my favorite subjects.  Mmmmm.  And they are gorgeous.

This is the first photo with the new lens.  Will I ever, ever, ever? figure out "order" of MY choosing on this format????    I did love the beans in the foreground, and the giant "Mammoth" sunflower in the background.  Of course, deciding on which to focus is always a good thing.  Hahaha.

It is hot and muggy today.  My intention is to get lots of painting done this morning, well, afternoon, now.  I am having "buyers freak-out" over my new lens.  Apparently, I need to go on a longer rambling photo shoot to allow inspiration and excitement to completely take over the apprehension.  I am back to carrying the camera with me.

Wish I could zap myself back to Deception Pass so I could re-walk the path into the forest and take shots of the bridge and the tidal currents beneath, and the clouds above.

And I know that this path only goes forward, a step or a leap or two at a time.  This all feels a little out of sync.  Entering my world again with a different viewpoint...
