Nature Photos: Up Close and Personal

1. Love the hoarfrost picts. It seems like we should see more of it here, but I’ve only seen really good batches about once a year. I assume it isn’t humid enough or that it gets too cold to develop properly (I think we’re gonna start seeing our sub-0°F in the next couple of weeks).

   • Thanks Michael. Yes, I used to have a great camera for these up-close photos, and they were the ones I used to sell the most. Now, my camera is great but not for up-close. And this iPhone isn’t that great either… but I still try. 💕

       • Thanks Matt. I usually only really share them on IG but I’ve decided to pull away from that platform for a while. I thought maybe some people here would like them as well.

      • Yeah, can’t you post some ugly stuff… so I can something like, ‘jeez Tara, that’s hideous’. I’m starting to feel like a broken record… (records were these things in olden times and sometimes they’d get stuck… oh wait… you’re an gnarly old bat, like me, you probably remember records) 😜

        • I probably would. Unless you have like a huge hairy hunch back… but eventually I’d be like okay, Tara stop posting pictures of yourself you ego maniac! So really you can’t win.

15. These are gorgeous photos, Tara – you clearly have the eye for thus. I really like the symmetry on the pine branch and the bark details. Your first shot is intriguing! I could look at these all day!

      • The curse of digital photography! Always good to see the work of someone who has the eye to capture the nature of a subject.

    • The first one is from behind a wall of ice coming off a rock wall, there was a small space I could climb into and look out through the light of daylight shining through the ice. I’d say it was oh 4-6” thick. I have some cool shots from that stop, but none as good as reality.
