Picture This #272 ~ Small Or Tiny

I'm so in love with our banner photograph by Debby. I have a friend who lived in New York who loves that spot.  Nice job, Debby.

On to small and tiny things. Here are my three.

Mushroom in hail
A mushroom, about an inch high, in tiny hail stones.

A tiny green bug.

This spider is so tiny it can barely be seen. It's just a white speck on the center of the black-eyed Susan.

    Hi Benni !! A wonderful collection of shots for this week's theme. I love the first shot, of the mushroom surrounded by hailstones. All it needs now is a little elf to be sheltering under it. LOL. Cute little green bug in the second shot, he certainly blends with his background. The general body-shape seems like a grasshopper, but the legs are certainly not grasshopper legs. Any idea what variety of bug this is? i like that tiny spider on the Susan. He seems to be waving :-))

      Thanks, Mitch, I just had to use the little mushroom picture. Maybe Baz will know what the bug is, I sure don't. But it's cute.

    Utterly wonderful

      Thank you, Baz, I was on my stomach to take it. No price too high, eh?

    That is really a mushroom completely different to the rest. Like your little green insect - good contrasts in the gree colours, and a lovely yellow daisy.

      Thanks, Pat. It rarely hails here, so I knew I needed to grab the opportunity.

    The little green bug blends in so well with it's surroundings. Nice capture!

    Now that is getting up close and personal. Love the little mushroom. The green bug looks like some kind of grasshopper. It truly is a tiny itsy bitsy spider. Great takes.
