    Default Jung bugs - The insex thread

    As Mad Aussie already told you, I like macros . So I want to introduce you some special bugs – so called June-bugs. They have a short life and only come out of the earth every second year for their mating. Well, this one came out in one special night for Germans – the european soccer championship. At least... important for all our friends and neighbours we’ve had invited that day for a together TV evening – it was ONLY me , who strolled the whole soccer game through the garden with the camera in one and a flashlight in the other hand ;-). But the photo was worth it, wasn’t it?

    Photography is more than just taking a picture and freezing the action, or leaving the shutter open. It is more than orchestrating the image with the stroke of a brush. Its the realization and explanation that reality is an isolated experience in which only a specific individual can comprehend during any given time period. - Your Truly!

    I'm not sure if I should be impressed with everyone's ability to capture images of mating insects or disturbed. Talk about your peeping toms!
