This critter magically appeared in my yard... #suburbs

Another one from the other day - - this hawk was soaring above the marshes, bringing up various twigs and reeds. #birds #birdsinflight #birds_of_instagram #nuts_about_birds #hawk #northernharrier #longisland #longislandwildlife #newyork

Spent all of today as a couch potato but that means I powered through the photos from the other day. #greatblueheron #gbh #birds #birdsofinstagram #longisland #longislandexplored #newyorkexplored #newyork #duneroad #dunerd #thehamptons

Found this little critter while I was doing laundry. Tiny baby, really. It's funny how my first insect macro of the year tends to be a jumping spider. I used this opportunity to grab my new used 550ex, since it supposedly can act as a slave to the ring light I use for these photos. I have no clue if I was doing it right or if it was even worth it (see those highlights in its eyes? Not sure if the third reflection is from the 550ex or just the ring light bouncing off the window) but here is the result. #macrophotography #macros #macroclique #macro_freaks #majestic_macros #macrocollective #bugsofinstagram #insectsofinstagram #bugs_are_us #macro_holic #smallworld_uc #jumpingspider

#throwbackthursday to 10 years ago! I was still living in California and managed to find a week to come home on vacation... And found myself in the (now defunct) Dinosaur Walk in Riverhead. I honestly don't remember much about it, except that it was poorly lit for dramatic effect and it was sort of a lot cheesy. #tbt #riverhead #longisland #newyork #eastend #longislandexplored #goneisland #doesntexistanymore #dinosaur #trexhatespushups

Testing out a new remote trigger for my flash... Amy doesn't seem to like it much. #dogsofinstagram #dogs #ocf #phottixares
