I realize that out of fear or revulsion (or both) some folks won’t even look at photos of spiders but I hope most of my readers aren’t in that category. I think spiders are marvels of evolution and many of them are actually beautiful in their own way.
American White Pelicans are a species I should train my lens on more often. While they’re sitting on the water they often don’t make a very interesting subject but getting that huge 16 lb. body airborne is a real struggle so photos of them taking off have much more interest for many of us.
Please do not pin my images on Pinterest, Tumblr or any other pinning site or social media or use them for anything else without my express permission (and that includes using them as models for paintings, drawings or tattoos etc.).
