I just can't stop taking these kinds of shots

This looks like a fish face to me
blue bud face

Reminds me of the "pipes" that they used to talk into in the old cartoon Horton Hears a Who
whorton hears a who

these I think saw the next pic
they look scared

This is a carry over from yesterday ... it shows the babies a little better

These are interesting, I agree the first looks like a fish, but all have an enigmatic quality and appeal.
You have taken your work to another dimension and added a macro style/skill to your portfolio. Your close up work impress every time I see it, good job Susan.

Thanks. I rarely see the spiders unless they have fallen into the pool. My hope is that enough of them can cut down on the bothersome insect population.

Thank You Beach. I appreciate that! I am hoping people don't get sick of 'em before the end of summer.
