Jackson's Feet

I don't know why, but I just find my oldest grandson's feet so interestingly expressive. One can almost tell by these shots what his level of interest in things was at the moment the pictures were taken.

Bug in the Road

Jackson and I went for a walk this afternoon, not a long walk, just down the street from the house, but everything seems to be an adventure! We found a cricket in the road and I managed to get a close-up lens on my phone and get this picture.

The texture of the gravel in the road really seems to come out in this shot, and in contrast to the complexity and color of the exoskeleton of the bug it does provide an interesting background.

We followed the cricket for a while until he got into the grass and became elusive, and then Jackson moved on to other "observations".
