Default Name that bug. EWWWWWW........
So you know photography has changed me when....

I freak out because of this bug climbing on my window. I capture it in a container, close the lid then grab the camera. I open the dang lid and take pics of this thing that freaks me out! LOL!
They aren't the best shots but I did try. I am thinking that a wide angle prime lens will be my next purchase

DSC_7069
F5.6
SS 1/125 sec
ISO 200

DSC_7072
F5.6
SS 1/50sec
ISO 1600

DSC_7073
data same as above

Guess the bug got you after all....the photography bug, that is. Strange how we can abandon our fears in the name of our obsession. Thanks for sharing.

oh if you had a video camera on me you would be laughing! I was saying ewwwww and jumping as it came closer to the edge of the container and just getting the heebie geebies. LOL! I did NOT take my eye off him in the view finder. As long as I could see him I was ok. And trying to get close was REALLY hard. ewwwwww
