It is a little bit chilly today but that will not stop me from having my Sunday walk! It is my routine now to exercise my legs because I am sitting most of the time. So, I grabbed my navy blue jacket and tumbler and head off. Today I was drinking orange and salvia tea. My tumbler can hold hot beverages for 24 hours, so it was a good investment for me!
Not a lot of people today probably because of the cold. People just prefer to stay indoors and enjoy a cup of hot coffee. Understandable because it might rain and you do not like to be soaking wet.
Walking also clears my mind, and just zoning out takes me to another universe. 🤣
Poof! I have to stop pondering on things I cannot change, haha!
About the title, I was talking about the weather, haha! Come out Mr. Sun! 🌞
Anyway~ here are the shots I collected today. 😁
I am not sure if this is a mantis. It has 4 long legs and a brown-orange color. Gladly this buddy is steady. Perhaps, insects fell asleep too to the cozy weather. Actually, he was so hard to find because of his color. He was just chilling on a branch. ☺️ 🦗
Look at the third photo. Hard to notice, right? 😙
I took a lot of photos, but only three made it to this post. I am happy with my shots~
I am surprised that there are a lot of insects today. This one is a mosquito for sure. It rained the past few days and so, maybe there is stagnant water around. This buddy is just hanging in this leaf. He was not scared when I point my lens close.
It is also a reminder for me to apply bug spray. Though not usually but since it is raining, it is important to repel these blood-sucking creatures. (Wear sunscreen too!)
Very tiny leaves in between white rocks. I just find these cute and delicate. They are just hiding around the rocks. They are noticeable and often home to ants. Perhaps one of the reasons why I like macro photography is because I can open a world far from noticing. It just surprises me when I see gems like these.
ugh 🥲 This looks like a rat's tail, not going to lie. Gives me shivers to the spine. Sorry, not a fan of rats.
I think this is a fern got withered. I found this on the very corner of a sidewalk. People probably unintentionally stepped on this that is why it died. See, even in the background, the plants turned in brown color.
This little plant looks like broccoli or a bouquet of flowers. It's got a heart shape if you squint really hard. haha!
This was hard to take an up-close picture because it was up above me. The red color is so bright in gloomy weather. It has stamen with fuzzy little hair. For sure this is not a gumamela, or maybe this is a close one to that kind.
After taking photos of the red flower, I thought to myself to go home because it might rain. I also already finished my tea. It was refreshing after some walking. By the way, I am listening to Style by Taylor Swift on repeat, lol. What do you listen to when you walk or work out? 🤩
That is it for this blog. I will see you at the next one!
