Up Close and Spineless



No, this is not an interview with George W. Bush. This is a PHOTOGRAPHIC EXHIBIT. And for all photography buffs as well as those of us fascinated by the world of living things, this is a must see.

Weird and wonderful world of creepy-crawlies
These invertebrate photographs were submitted to the Up Close and Spineless competition, and are on display at the Australian Museum from 18 October 2008. They include photographs of a huntsman spider catching a lift on a cow horn, a bright green scarab beetle, and a cute grasshopper...

WOW!

As a photographer I find it deeply satisfying to see some of the truly stupendous art, web pages, ads, and other uses of my photos. In many of the art photos, the original photo is all but unrecognizable in the finished product. This one in Devianart.com is just one example. Check it out. You can also check out some of my original photos on Morguefile.com (artist Puravida), and many other photo sites. The photos posted on Morguefile are available free of charge to any non-profit organization or person.
