Actually, he kind of jumped away after the second photo and
I couldn´t find him anymore. When I came near with the camera, the
lens was almost touching him and I was so afraid that he would
before I could take one !

Yes... crickets are not very patient

Sweet dreams

Oh well... you can´t compare me with Liek !! That is a professional
approach (mine is just amateur and hobby like).
Are you watching other macro artists ? I can link you to some great
ones if you wish... I watch several

You know... I do the same you do.
So I dont understand why I was telling you all this.

Maybe it's the frustration I feel sometimes when I take a photo and
what I get is not as beautiful as what I saw...

But it's true. I dont compare photographers either, and I favor art
because I like it

I will be delighted to share other macro artists I watch with you:

Oh my! I got lost in the galleries of the macro artists LOL Thank you so much for sending the links, I am so happy! It's beautiful, every picture in it's own way! And I am sure going through them again, but I'm a little short in time now, and way behind things I saw you've uploaded some pictures of youuuu And I'm first going to have a look at them as soon as I replied everything here

I know what you feel, and I understand it very good, because I've got the same feelings But with you it isn't necessary ... really! Your work is OUTSTANDING! And I mean every word!

Thank you so much for your love, words, and your kindness You're really special

You stamped a smile on my face, Lelanie
Your enthusiasm and colorful messages are a wave of energy
and I can easily realize that you are happy !

Please be my guest and enjoy those galleries. You will find lots
of links to other macro artists there, since they watch each other.

Thank you SO much for your encouraging words , they are an
injection of will to continue submitting what I consider nice

After this series of color (I still have some to send) I will submit a series of black and white. I never did black and white before and I will
submit so some friends can provide critique. Please dont feel bad if you dont like them, since they WILL be kind of colorless

Thanks for being such a fantastic person, Lelanie !!

Whiee

You make me so happy Thank you for your kind words, really!
You make my day ... and the day didn't even begin yet (It's 3:45 am here, and I am still in front of the pc ) I think you are starting to know me, because you already see I love colors. My gallery has a bit of color too, and I hope it always will. When I upload something colorful ... I am happy. When I post something dark ... I am not happy or just depressed or I have no inspiration (or my in laws are bugging again haha ). I do have those bad yukkie times ... but everyone has them I think

I look forward to your black and white photo's, they can be good too! Although I'm not really fan of black and white (or grey) but I'm sure you're just as picky as me, so they'll be good And I'll let you know (honest) how I see them ok

Thank you for being who you are, and for being such an inspirational person!

And thank YOU for being such a fantastic woman, you're like the through the clouds
BIG hugs & Kisses

Oh yes... this can be addictive sometimes and when you realize it's time to really go to

I love colors a LOT, but I have felt the fascination of good black and whites. They can also deliver sensations so different from color shots.
And some photos look much better in B&W !

I am not sad when I use black and white (or sepia, or even blue by changing the color temperature of the photo). I just experiment and try
to find what fits the photo best.

I have stepped into such gorgeous black and whites that I started feeling the need to test it and... well, guess I'll know pretty soon how they turned. I count on your not favoring anything that you dont like and I would love to receive a honest critique.

Thanks for your friendship, Lelanie. I am really enjoying a lot having met you !!

Yessss, it's really addictive! And you just sit and sit, and forget about sleep And when you're going to bed, and you have to wake up in the morning ... it HURTS

I agree with you, some photo's really look better in B&W!

Ohhh, I can see you're not a sad person, you're so bright and It's nice to talk with you, I always sit here with a huge smile on my face when I read your messages

And you can count on it that I'll be honest with my comments on the black and whites ok I always like it when people are honest, and I always try to be as honest as can get Don't like being a fake, and make people happy for no reason. There's enough un-happiness in the world already

Thank YOU for everything! I'm very happy too that we've met each other!
