In the canyon behind my house I found this guy one morning a few days ago just cruising along this dead plant. He took a turn down a dead end. used a 100mm macro and probably around F6.3. I wanted to use a higher F but, believe it or not, he was moving just fast enough that slower shutter caused a bit of motion blur. Really did not want to bump up ISO because I wanted the sky to stay as smooth as possible.

Very well done, the sky turned out perfect in these. Poor little guy, I can only imagine how confused he must have been :p

Great shot. Had to laugh when you sais he was moving too fast - but I understand.

All I want is just a little more than I'll ever have.
