Wisconsin Spring
We woke up to a white ground and beautiful white blobs in the trees. All of the photos were taken with the Canon 40D and the 100mm macro lens. Hubby took the last one, of the snake, I was having a small anxiety attack just taking the first one, even though Haden was holding the tail.
you went on a nature adventure, i see! nice pictures!
Nice sharp images. Great subjects. All very well done.
Very nice shots, well done!
Beautiful ♥ amazing macro shots -
Terrific nature shots. Sorry to hear about your expected snow. We're
looking at more rain here in Louisiana... we've had waaaaaaaay too much
and don't want anymore! Now we'll have to worry about your melting
snowfall making it's way down here! lol
wow! great pics!!! happy ww!
I gotta tell you that I like the shrooms a WHOLE bunch more than the
snakes!! And the wooly bear is very cute!!
Great nature macro shots. I was wondering when the upper Midwest was going
to thaw!
i was all right until i saw the snake!
i wouldn't dare get near the snake... i don't know if the snow will kill
the ticks but i think the fungi might rot... these are beautiful shots :)
I doubt anything can kill ticks - they could be related to cockroaches and
house flies. We can have 0 degree weather for weeks, the first day it is
about freezing, a fly is seen trying to get in our window. Nice snake. I
suppose you used a telephoto....
fantastic photos! I live in sorrento (italy), and here the spring is not
arrived yet: now it's windy and cold.
bye, bye! marinica (sorry for my english!)
your blog is very nice!
What is that in the picture above the woolly mammoth?
All beautiful photos, even the ones of the snake...shudder.
you just made me realize that Wisconsin is not the place for me. Lots of
ewwies...and ticks...shudder!!
NLM - Actually it's a macro lens on for these, the 100mm. Hubby took the
closest snake photo, I was starting to get creeped out too much.
DAMMIT!! The next time you are going to post a pic of a snake - for god's
sake email me first!! I cannot take that kind of shock - especially first
thing in the mornign...Girl!!?????? Have you not read my profile?????????
Oh, I love those tree mushrooms and Caterpillars are great!
Lovely shots!
Super sharp photos! The one of the furry catapillar is my favorite.
I love your little snake-people... they are just charming!
Wait! Are those shots of the (yucky, scary) snake taken by the same person
who wouldn't touch the (really adorable) mice?
Really? MORE snow? Are you sure you like cold more than hot?
Lisa, that third shot is phenomenal - I love the textures all along it.
(had to close my eyes for the snakes, though)
Lisa - could you have a look at this please? Seems there is someone here in
need of encouragement and support...

Great pictures, so much color...we got a dusting up my way of snow, that's
all and it seems to have melted thankfully, we do not need snow now with
the move next week.
Happy WW, you can catch mine at <a

I know the snow is coming. Yuck. It makes for a long drive.
Gulp. don't like the snakes all that much.
Excellent but most of these are scary to me....:-0
Gorgeous, I have snake envy. Haven't seen any yet. It only snowed lightly
here, but has been cold enough. WHERE or where has the sun gone?
These are wonderful nature pictures. I like the snake picture. It scarey
but a great but a great picture. Nice detail!
It sure seems that your spring came quickly.
I haven't seen a snake yet... nor do I care to see one.
Lisa...Lisa...Lisa. Talk about making me even more jealous for a nice
camera after seeing those photos. You are an amazing talent whom I hope
will be my teacher in about 20 years when I FINALLY get a REAL camera.
LOL!! On easter ever time I tried to take a photo of Sylbie, when I
clicked and it took she was gone. We had to keep putting Sawyer's egg up
in the tree because the camera kept missing the shot. Ugh!! You have an
swesome blog and pictures!! Very cool! God has blessed you with an
amazing talent...that and of coarse being a great friend!! Hope to see you
soon.!!
AS usual, all absolutely amazing shots! I love the one of
the...well...what is that glowing red thing? Love it, whatever it is. ;-)
What great pics of a cute little Garter snake!! Love 'em! You also know
you're good when you can make fungus look pretty enough to hang on a wall.
:)
Awesome closeups. I love snakes. They are just so cute.
EEEEK! A SNAKE!! ::running away fast::
