EDIT2:I've created a Behind the Scenes look on how I created this image. If you're interested, please visit the post. Thank you! albertoalanis.com/behind-the-sβ¦EDIT: Just started a new website and I'm going to post how I create my images! So far it's just one post, but I'm working on more! If you're interested , visit albertoalanis.com/learn/
If you have any questions, let me know! Thanks everyone!
I visited a Butterfly Exhibit a few months ago when the temperature was low and bugs were scarce. This place was like a toy store for me as I had been itching for a new bug photo for months! If you're ever in the Houston area, I highly recommend that you visit the Cockrell Butterfly Exhibit. So fun!

I'm glad you find it adorable! One of my missions is to help people see that bugs really aren't as creepy as they seem. They have a lot of character and cuteness! =]

I love bugs. Even ants. I just don't like how some of them infest things. Of course that again is their nature.Β
My grandma the other day was going to kill a spider and it was making me sad. The spider zipped off before she could crush it though. She said it had it's skates on. I was laughing. Cute little thing.

Haha!
I agree though, I tend to leave bugs or animals alone unless they're hurting my home or family. While I hate to do it, my family and home come first.

This is both really cool and absolutely terrifying (I'm scared of bugs). It's an amazing shot that you were able to get here though.

One of my goals is to get people who are afraid of bugs to not be through my photographs. I admit, they even freak me out as well sometimes because they can be so unpredictable, but there's no denying their complexity and incredible talents. Knowing this always brings me back. =]
