Nature macro photography - Florida

in #photo6 years ago

Today, me and a buddy of mine decided to do a bike ride along some trails in Alderman's Ford Park, a conservation park that runs alongside the Alafia River in Hilllsborough County, Florida.

While cycling through the park, I was able to capture some shots using my Canon 80D camera.

The first set of shots are of a dragonfly that I was able to capture from sideviews and head-on:

The next set of shots were along the side of the river and then one of the trails leading through the center of the park:

The next set of shots are of a spider that was resting upon it's web near one of the overhangs by the river:

The last shot is of a butterfly flying above the grass line. Though it is a little blurry, the added shadow trail left in it's wake from moving so quickly while capturing the shot gave the image a cool look:

What a beautiful day to spend in nature, not only checking out a beautiful park, but to spend it other living creatures is a day well spent.

One love,

Web can be easily seen in the picture but the top one fly is just mind blowing..Keep up the good work.

@introvert-dime Thank you very much for the kind words. I got very lucky that the dragonfly didn't move while trying to capture it. The spider as well. As nasty of a creature as they are, their color variations are quite cool.

Wow, what a great capture of the dragonfly! Seems that it's a beautyful place to hangout.I always love these kind of peaceful places.Thanks for sharing with us sir.

Fantastic macro, super sexy.
