The Gallery – Week 72 – Animals
I like a challenge and I enjoyed this one immensely ๐
I’m pleased I stumbled across The Gallery because I love taking photos and I’m always trying to improve my limited skills! I only have my camera phone but from what I’ve read, it’s quite good and can do lots of things I never knew about.
I decided to do some investigating and found that I can change the settings to take better pictures of things like ladybirds and ants so guess what I’ve been doing all morning……yep, chasing bugs around the garden, trying to get them to sit still and smile for the camera. They seem a little camera shy if you ask me but I did manage to grab a few good shots before they realised what I was doing. You have to be sneaky when it comes to bugs, you know!
Here’s my entry for this week’s gallery.
This spider was sitting on the blanket on the chair outside. I’m so pleased I noticed it sitting down!
Just after I got the spider, a bird came for some food and stayed still long enough to have his picture taken. I think he was posing really!
I look forward to checking out all the other entries over the coming week ๐
Thanks Sarah ๐
I love taking photos too, these are great shots!
Thanks Mags ๐
You reminded me of the old woman who swallowed a fly, Melksham Mum….that would have a been a good challenge if I'd have followed that theme!! ๐
I wonder if the bird ever got the spider or perhaps it wanted something bigger?!
Oooh scary spider! Good idea to take a pic of it and the bird was definitely a bonus – great shot!
Thank you both ๐ xx
Lovely pictures ๐
Both lovely
Think I like the spider one best
