Spiders, Insects, Flowers And Trees
Today was unusual in that I found several subjects which caught my "photographer's eye". First up was a small spider which my young companion proudly showed me. I would never have dared to pick it up, but he assured me that, despite its fearsome appearance, it was quite harmless. And to demonstrate, he let it run up his shirt and onto his neck. I snapped it on his yellow neckband.

Of course, I simply had to allow him to put it on my shirt!

We then drove to the supermarket, and, as I was checking round the car in the car park, I saw this grasshopper on the door mirror. I'm not sure if they are called whiskers, or feelers, but whatever they are called, the ones on this grasshopper are the longest I've ever seen.

After shopping, rather than go straight home, we took a leisurely drive around the local country lanes. We stopped in the grounds of a church which my passengers wanted to visit, and while they were busy inside, I saw these flowers.

And this oddly shaped tree.

And then, this insect, which reminds me of those carved African masks.

Finally, after returning home, I enjoyed another beautiful sunset.

I wish every day was like today.
