Here are just a few of the thousands of photos I've taken. For a while I was a semi pro and did weddings, special events for the town, and basically never put the camera down. All these were taken with a 35mm camera.
I miss taking road trips and just taking a LOT of photos.

Funny how many of love nature shots. My favorites--other than those of my granddaughter and pug--are shots of dragonflies. I have dozens. I'm attaching three. These were all shot in my neighborhood. I'm amazed at the colors....
I laughingly called this dragonfly "porn," but i believe the heart formed by these mating dragonflies is gorgeous. They were among literally dozens I saw at a small pond a few miles from my home.

This big-eyed beauty was resting on a 4 o-clock plant in my yard The second shot --the bright orange--was at a stream at the end of my street. I never noticed orange dragonflies until I started really looking. The final shot --hope you don't consider it bug porn--is a mating pair of blue dragonflies I photographed at a pond a mile or so away. They were among dozens and the heart shape was everywhere!!d.

Sorry I had trouble editing the cutline info. It's all above the first photo and I can't figure out how to get rid of the duplicate. The blue dragonflies in last photo are very small--probably less than an inch in size.

I do much better with stills than with most anything else.
As an example, here's a photo of a fly on a deer antler I did last spring.

Nice pic!! If that hook hadn't been on there I would have thought it was some kind of a freaky bug.
