Another butterfly shot

Obviously, I'm lacking time and appropriate blog fodder so I'm posting another shot of the same sort of butterfly as in the previous shot. It may be a bit boring but at least the focus is in the right place this time...

Two is a crowd

Oh well, the focus is not where it should be in this shot but...

Haze

It was a hazy day as is obvious from the photo but down beneath these green hills is the city I live in... well, part of it anyway.

We've been having some heavy sultry weather lately... now, I don't mind the heat but the humidity usually gets the better of me. And the nights in particular have been difficult... you can't sleep, you can't stay awake... and when it's time to get up, you feel exhausted as if from hard labour.

Anyway, we spent part of the day in these hills and it was a welcome refreshment from the stale humid air and overheated concrete.

New way

Some time ago, as a part of the alphabet project, I posted a photo of a hay-rack (May 8 post). Objects like that were used for storing hay. Nowadays those are rarely used anymore and plastic bales prevail in the fields.

Wrong timing?

Accidents can have interesting effects...

Thirsty bug

Underexposed

Oh well... in near darkness I optimistically took this shot of a passing helicopter. When trying to save as much as could be, this came out... the photo is still crap but I kind of like the effect...
