Ha ha ha This hairstyle is becoming very fashionable lol..No bugs but we get these funny hair cuts which are full of detail. I don't know what these are but I am so glad you found them. The bugs can wait till next time and we can all marvel at these super captures. Great work Michelle.

Looks like me when I get up in the morning! Very interesting and great detail. That one in shot #2 looks so soft a fluffy. Sometimes you just have to shoot what is available. Nice work!

Thanks Jake, I'm sure I have seen these hairstyles about town. Let me change that. I'm sure I've seen these hairstyles in the city, country life is a bit more sedate. Ha,Ha.

You are absolutely right Michelle. I couldn't think of anything to photograph so I decided to take a little walk outside, but it was too cold for me and the bugs so resigned myself to going back inside. Then I saw the weeds with their little hairdos in a nice warm spot. There is beauty everywhere.

Thankyou Audrey, I am suffering from a similar problem at the moment, cold dry weather does nothing for the hair.
