some of my pictures, taken with a nikon D7000 and various lenses that i have collected in the past years

Missouri farmland (18-55mm kit lens)


Slug (55mm micro f2.8 with a 35mm extension tube)


this was the single most difficult shot i have ever taken... was in flight, i had a 70-300mm 3.5-4.5 lens zoomed in to 300mm and was manually focusing... every time i would get near getting it in to focus it would move and i'de have to find it in the viewfinder again try to focus, again, only to have it move... again... must have taken 40-50 pictures and this is the only one that turned out


patch of flowers in my yard... seems the bumble bee is a re-occurring theme in my pics (50mm 1.8)

70-300mm 3.5, first osprey i had seen, got him with the big lens... was fortuitous cause i was taking some mediocre shots of a heron sitting on the bank then this guy flew by
