    Title or Location: Statesboro, South Carolina
    I was at a rest area and I thought to capture some landscape photos. I walked over by a tree and saw this magnificent blue butterfly so I ran back to my truck to grab my extension tubes and Speedlite. I walked over to the same tree and I was about to get a macro shot of the butterfly when I saw this wasp. He was acting a bit odd so I put some water out for him. He flew down to the cap to the water bottle and then flew back up. I had no idea he still had water that he was drinking. I took 10 shot

    Title or Location: Mechanicsville, VA
    I had just gotten a Sigma 50-500 lens. I couldn't wait to take a picture with it. This is the first picture I took with it and it was in my back yard. The squirrel was pretty far away, but that lens was amazing. I never noticed that squirrels had little holes under their ears until I shot this image! I moved to Tulsa last year, and I'm looking forward to finding interesting things to shoot!

    Title or Location: Tulsa Zoo Antelope
    Not the most interesting location but a beautiful animal none the less. The sitatunga is an African semi-aquatic antelope that is considered one of the most secretive and least-known of Africa's large antelopes so I figured I would take the opportunity to get a shot, three visits later I finally was able to take one home that I am happy with. It may be worth noting that this is my very first time posting any of my photos publicly. Thank you for the opportunity. Focal Length 200 mmShutter

    Title or Location: In Lynnwood by the parking lot of my apartment
    I was soaking in the sun on a beautiful day with my camera and zoom lens when i spotted the dragon fly on the antenna of a car parked car close to my apartment. The vivid colors and the beauty of the moment was no lost on me and i immediately zoomed in with my Tamron 70-300mm lens. I was glad the dragonfly was in no hurry to fly away. I was all smiles when i looked at the end result. The bokeh effect and beauty of the dragonfly. My camera settings were SON

    Title or Location: Pencils
    This picture was taken by a large window, three pencils (RGB coloured) were laid on white card which was curved up in the distance, but the curve cannot be discerned due to the very shallow depth of field and even light, giving the impression of infinity into the distance ...
