Picture of the Day for July 4, 2012

Well since there were some squishish reactions to yesterday’s spider picture, I’ll stay away from the insects today. I don’t mind the spiders so much if they are outside and I don’t get the web across my face but there is an insect I hate – those nasty mosquitoes that were biting me when I was getting the sunset last night so I didn’t venture out to take pictures the neighbor’s fireworks last night. So instead I had to use some of last year’s fireworks instead for today’s picture.

I’ll see if tonight the wind is blowing enough to chase the skeeters away and if I can get some new firework pictures.

Happy 4th of July!

There are those who don’t always appreciate my choice of subject matter. My cousin really did not care for my mouse pictures. The photographs of frogs disturbs some people and others don’t like insect photos unless it’s butterflies. A friend chewed me out for getting too close to bees (just because I’m allergic to them).  But it seems the spider pictures get the most negative reaction, so I apologize upfront for today’s picture but I couldn’t resist the shot.

The dewdrops made the web stand out while the spider guards the fly caught in the web just below her.

Well it’s rare for me to take any building photographs, unless rustic old barns and buildings, I do take some pictures that aren’t flowers, critters or sunsets.

I love this old wagon and how this wagon at one time was probably the new ‘Ford 250’ in the neighborhood and had to haul it’s fair share of heavy loads.

Welcome to SeS Photo’s Picture of the Day.

This is actually the start of volume three of the picture of the day and I hope you enjoy the pictures. Many of the pictures which appear here in the picture of the day will be available in different size prints, note cards and gallery canvas wraps.

I enjoy taking nature and scenery pictures and I tend to take a lot of sunsets so I figured a sunset picture would be a good photo to start this volume. I had taken a grass picture during a sunset on my old camera years ago and I have been waiting for the conditions to replicate again so I could take one on a higher resolution camera but so far I haven’t matched the original old photograph and this image is the closest that I have achieved to the other image.
