Not sure what this little creature is. I guess I'll have to leave it up to the lepidopterologists to help me out. The light was oh so perfect for a macro, and this guy just flew onto the echinacea flower I was about to photograph (serendipity!). My mother in law has lovely echinacea plants, and occasionally some interesting beasties fly onto them. Was lucky to catch this guy in the right light. Oshiro (Venus Laowa) 2:1 Macro lens, handheld, fairly high ISO (1250) to get to 1/1000th (again, handheld). Nikon d750.
De ayer, después de la lluvia que cayó en el Vallés.
Feliz finde. Besosssssss

Bokehlicious Dandelion seed head.
Saw a field of dandelions this morning so I decided to take a few macro shots.
Dandelion - after the seed is released, the parachutes lose their feathered structure and take on a fuzzy, cotton-like appearance, often called "dandelion snow."

Comme si la nature se défaisait petit à petit de ses couleurs vives avant la blancheur éventuelle de la prochaine saison. (Photo non retouchée sauf pour la vignette)
The softer tones of November... As if nature was slowly preparing us to the monochromatic state of the next season. (No processing other than cropping and vignette)
Estas glicinas florecidas son para mi querida Montse Poch. Creo que si hay alguien en flickr que le gusten las flores tanto como a mi, es a ella. Además, son casi siempre flores que nos encontramos por el campo, por las aceras, por los jardines de las casas. Casi siempre flores silvestres, bonitas y fotogénicas.
Las fotos de Montse son divinas, en luminosidad, nitidez, colores, encuadre... son perfectas. Ya lo dije una vez y lo vuelvo a repetir, es una de mis fotógrafas preferidas de Flickr. Como persona un auténtico cielo, muy muy maja.
Te mando las glicinas (no se cual es su nombre científico .... jajajaj) espero te gusten.
Muchos besos guapísima !
Su maravillosa galería, en este tiempo muy florida, aqui: Montse Poch

The weather is nasty! It rains all the time! I miss sunshine and warmth! Where are you Spring? Where are you Summer?
That time of day when everything appears gentle, but birds and bats are on the wing feasting on insects.
Feliz día de todos los Santos !

It is far more impressive
when others discover your good qualities
without your help.

Thank you for all your comments, faves, visits! Happy Friday everyone!
Esta ramita de almendro (no está cortada) es del almendro que tengo en casa, me lo regaló mi madre hará unos 5 años. Es pequeñito, no crece mucho y este es el primer año que está totalmente florido.
Se la dedico a mi madre, por el gusto exquisito en todo lo que hace y que me hace ver a diario.
Feliz mitad de semana !!!!!!

Satisfaction lies in the effort, not in the attainment, full effort is full victory.
Mahatma Gandhi.
Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi (2 October 1869 – 30 January 1948) was the leader of the Indian independence movement against British rule. Employing nonviolent civil disobedience, Gandhi led India to independence and inspired movements for civil rights and freedom across the world. The honorific Mahātmā (Sanskrit: "high-souled", "venerable") applied to him first in 1914 in South Africa is now used worldwide. In India, he is also called Bapu (Gujarati: endearment for "father","papa") and Gandhiji. He is unofficially called the Father of the Nation.
Me he levantado con esta canción:
Y observo el sol que entra por mi ventana, que me despeja y renueva mis ganas, miro al espejo y me pregunto que me espera fuera.
Y siento todo tan brillante y tan magnético, nada ni nadie puede hacer que me derrumbe hoy, que tiemble el suelo que allá voy, pisando fuerte y sin reloj .................
Si queréis escucharla aquí os la dejo, es Sonrisa de Ana Torroja.

Soft-tone pampas...
I believe that soft tone film is better for outdoor shots- definitely with flash...
It might be interesting to mention that i'm not in a forest or in field or somewhere in nature... Actually i'm in the center of the city surrounded by cars, buses and noise. And no, my city doesn't look like countryside at all.
