Since the previous post mentioned my occasional butterfly-chasing activities, I thought I would show you a typical result. Not art, but fun. Greenville, SC

Sometimes I chase butterflies around the back yard with my camera and macro lens. This year I discovered that, when evening falls and the butterflies disappear, a second shift of moths takes over. By then, focusing is almost impossible and shutter speeds are long, so you have to go for the dreamy look. (BTW, I think this is a Dogbane Tiger Moth.) Greenville, SC

Lately I've been trying to post series of pictures that shared some theme or location. But now we'll have a short run of unrelated photos. In the neighborhood, Greenville, SC
