Basic Guidelines: In the strictest sense, nature photography should not include "hand of man elements". Please refrain from images with buildings or human made structures like roads, fences, walls. Pets are not permitted. Captive subjects in zoos, arboretums, or aquariums are permitted, but must be declared, and must focus on the subject, not the captivity. Images with obvious human made elements will likely be deleted from the thread, with an explanation to the photographer. Guidelines are based on PSA rules governing Nature photography which also cover the Nature Forum. Keep your image at/under 1000 pixels on the long axis for in-line viewing. Note that this includes photos hosted off-site at Flicker, Photobucket, your own site, etc

 

Each member please post no more than just one image to this weekly thread per week. If the information is available, many members appreciate information on your approach to making the image and the names, both common and scientific, of the subject(s). However, while encouraged, these are not required as a component of your contributions.

Went whale watching in Moss Landing (Monterey Bay, California) on Sunday. It was calm in the ocean and we saw a lot of humpback whales. But it was a bit disappointing from the photography point of view, no lunge feeding and no breaching.

My first line of defense against West Nile virus, or the sight that greeted me when I stepped out onto my front porch one night a couple of weeks ago.

Araneus sp.

 

BTW, this isn’t a macro—she has a leg-span of a couple of inches. Naturally, the first thing I thought of was the classic Far Side cartoon: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/40954677830981511/

OK. Maybe it was the second thing I thought of.
