Closer to Nature – A Photography Linky

On this week’s Silent Sunday entry, my friend commented and said “You guys are very Attenborough on a Sunday, love it!” and I realised that I really do love taking photos of nature, creatures weird and wonderful and generally anything that makes a good macro shot!

I decided that, in honour of the school holidays and the good weather we’re having, that I’d do a little linky where you can get ‘Closer to Nature’ and post your best nature photos. There are no rules other than that it must be a photo of something nature related, but it can be just a photo or have a story with it. I’ve made a little badge too, that you can add to your post, which is in the sidebar and will link back here to everyone’s posts.

Have fun, I can’t wait to see your photos! If enough people link up, I may do it again throughout the holidays.

Here’s mine – Husband took it using my Canon Ixus compact camera with the macro on:

    I’ve got one I posted a couple of weeks ago on my blog – would that count if I added the linky? It’s a bee on a poppy :-)

    Ooh, another nature link-up how exciting! I have loads of nature pics on both my blogs so I would definitely link up on a regular basis – I’ve linked up with our school trip pictures, lots of nature!

    My boys love getting out and about so i have linked up with this weeks walk in the woods. My eldest picked up a slug recently – doesn’t look as cute as a snail!

    Great idea, more than happy to join in (go on make it regular!)… Love the close-up of the snail/slug!! I am not sure I personally would call my blog a photo blog, but I know a few people might! :) http://www.thesojournseries.com/bavaria/

    Hi, have just linked up, the shot was a perfect macro image taken on my slr but when I view it on my blog it looks blurry, not sure if it will be that way for you, hope not.
