A few flowers and bird feeder is all it takes to bring a little bit of nature into one’s backyard.  It’s a good excuse to try out my new macro lens and put that big Sigma telephoto lens to good use.  Best of all, I don’t have to go far and I can smoke a cigar and drink some wine or beer and not worry about the fuzz ruining my day.   Here’s are some photos that run from the cute to creepy.  At least I stayed sober enough to still pull focus 🙂

All photos taken with a Pentax K-5, Pentax 100mm f.28 macro and Sigma 150-500 f5-6.3 APO telephoto.
