My Favourites — Lens-Artists Challenge #129

·

Hi All 👋 My entry for this weeks challenge, set by Tina: Favourite Images of 2020.

Travel was very much curtailed in 2020, but it’s amazing what we can see within walking distance of home!

Starting off with these shots of a visiting squirrel drinking from small puddles on the shed roof.

Had a lot of fun playing with my new macro lens; these are my favourites!

My lensball was also a new toy, & much experimantation helped me to learn what does & doesn’t work. Basically, yay for landscapes! although the shot of daisy cottage with a daisy had to make the selection too

…and finally, I managed to get a decent shot of the moon (the last full moon of 2020)?

    Great photos. Love the squirrel, and the macros are superb. Gazing into one’s crystal ball, has the world turned upside down? One can only wonder, what is next. 🙂

      Turned upside down has given me an idea for Becky’s SquareUp challenge; thanks, John

    Wonderful shots as always. Although I get mad at the squirrels getting in m y feeders, that are so photogenic. Him sitting up seems to say “Hello friend. Do you have a bit of food you can throw my way?”
