John Steiner, the blogger behind Journeys With Johnbo, has this prompt he calls Cellpic Sunday in which he asks us to post a photo that was taken with a cellphone, tablet, or another mobile device.
We get a lot of wildlife in our backyard, but recently I’ve been seeing a lot of dragonflies. Do you know how hard it is to get a decent photo of a dragonfly? They flit from place to place like skinny little hummingbirds. I was lucky to grab this shot when this dragonfly alighted on the wire fence at the edge of our backyard. I think he looks more like a teeny, tiny helicopter than an insect, doesn’t it?
Shortly after capturing the photo of the dragonfly, I met up with this little praying mantis.
I’m not sure how much praying this little guy will be doing, as he only has one leg. But he’s still alive and relatively mobile, sort of like me, so I suppose he’s doing okay.
If you wish to participate in this fun cellphone photo prompt, please click on the link to John’s post at the top of my post to see his photo and to read his instructions.
