estate walkabout - without invitation


droplets like jewels - the banana leaf collected a lot of these little pearls..... the question is how to shoot them to get the sparkling effect. cannot shoot perpendicularly on the droplets, must at an angle

erection is near, so the mp's and their gangs are doing a lot of walk-abouts and talk and shake people's hands, to solicit their votes.

after the rain, marathon man also did a walk-about, in his estate public garden. and he was not canvasing for anything, rather shooting away at his candidates..... without their invitations.

here are the ones that's being shot...

b - the most difficult to shoot, constantly buzzing around, landing on the flower, doing its dance even when collecting pollens.... and before you could go nearer and set the focus, off it goes buzzing again...


fly - found this one on the neighbor's lupin flower. just manage to take shot and it flew away and settled on the leaf for another few shots




another fly - this one is tiny, sitting on the pandan leaf, crawling about. the first bug greeting good morning



another fly on the leaf


wasp - a big surprise when turn around and saw this yel-blackie buzzing among the ixora, like the bee, it moved constantly, though not as fast



ants - at first, thot it was un-interesting, then when taken in macro, they are different animals. they were sucking the sap from the ixora buds




moth - spotted this f117 on the leafs when something flew across the eye-sight, took a couple of shots, and it vertically took of like an arrow




long, green spider - there was something moving in the wind, dangling on a thread. it climbed to a palm tree leaflet by withdrawing the silky thread it made earlier. once it reached the leaflet, it completely blended itself into the green surface of the leaflet
