Backyard Fun
Looking for things to photograph isn't easy this time of year, May 12. Finding living things that is. For the last month or so, and the warm days are here and there, I have been looking and found a few things but was also bored so I made a pic of myself which consisted of four images, Myself in environment, my eye and I enlarged it to look magnified, the dandelion then bug pic I took a few years ago but never posted. Then a few other photos also.
