Picture post: August 2007 Archives

I haven't been seeing any Mud Dauber's nests hanging from under the soffits lately. And it seems that it may be because a new species has moved in. I wonder if these are Organ Pipe Mud Dauber's residences?

And I have no clue what insect is responsible for the tiny ones! Mini Mud Dauber's?

It's getting pretty dark out and I have busy making a pizza, but I had to take a picture. I thought it would be a good opportunity to take a HDR photo. I used a tripod, the 16-35 lens, high speed mode, and set it to take a sequence of 5 photos at the following exposure compensations (-2, -1, 0, +1, +2). The only problem was a light wind gently moving some of the branches.

The almost full moon is rising above the clouds. Don't forget about the lunar eclipse, this Tuesday morning starting at 3:51 am. I wonder if I should wake up for it. I still haven't found a great spot to take pictures...
