C Cemetary

G Ornate Gravestone older than 1800 This is the gravestone for Philip Livingstone died June 12, 1778 located in Propect Hill Cemetary York, PA. He was one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence.

F Firefly ... this is the best one out of about 30 that I took last night. This will have to do until I figure a way to get a better one. It was a 20 sec. exposure and only three were on the move. The other little yellow dots are fireflies in the grass getting ready to take off.

Awaken - My cat Simba waking up from somewhere he not aloud to be.


Firefly- My first try I don't like the picture but submit for now and try for another picture later

 

[plyeng2ff]

I didn't like the area I was shoting from but I don't have many place to try this techique at. The facts that there are wires in all the pictures. And the chain link was a pain in the butt because it had to be crop out of every picture. I am posting two out of about ten experiment pictures I took tonight. It actually was a fun time out with the camera doing something I never tried before.

Katydid-not sure if this truely is a katydid. If not let me know and I won't count it.

The Katydid has more than 6400 different species so I would say yes it can count, but I'm not the judge.
