Caught My Eye at Breakfast

August 03, 2015  •  2 Comments

Our morning routine is that we usually sit outside at the table next to the pool. I drink coffee. Judy drinks hot water. And we watch the birds as they land at the sunflower feeders. It's nearly a ritual every morning. We have received twice the amount of normal rainfall during July. So our yard is green. The trees that surround our home are green. So it shouldn't have been a surprise to see several toadstools glistening in the early morning dew.

Only photographers retrieve plastic sheeting and a towel to lie on the grass and creep close enough with a macro lens and experiment with different lens settings to get a photo like the one above. Seeing is fun!

This is my kind of photo! I'm not good enough, yet, to capture the dew drops on cobwebs in the reeds along the south end of Unity Pond. They are so pretty reflecting early morning light. Some day, maybe! In the meanwhile, I have mental photos that are a form of prayers of thanksgiving.
