I know I’m searching for something
Something so undefined
That it can only be seen
By the eyes of the blind
In the middle of the night.

I found this isolated boardwalk at Birdlands in the Dandenong Ranges, Australia. After a few picts I just couldn’t capture the curves, motion and contrasts I was seeing. I tilted the camera and voila … an image with nice motion running down the curves of the boardwalk. Now that’s more like it!

It’s always amazing what you can find when you look really really close at something. I guess that’s why I love macro photography. It gives you a new perspective, a new found appreciation, a renewed sense of wonder.

This was a dandelion I picked up while playing outside with Willow. I attempted to get a nice sharp dandelion close up when Willow ran up and gave a hefty blow sending little dandelion missiles flying right as I snapped the picture.  Enjoy.
