Even if you were sighted you might struggle to see a little toad with camouflage on the ground covered with scattered pine needles, a little bare earth and occasional spots of bright light coming through the canopy.

Alexander Simpson came in first at the Twilight 5K -- he comes in first quite often in road races! Between going to New England, prioritizing people I gave a token to, and not overloading my followers I am not so fast posting photos...

That guy wears a boonie cap with fox ears to smile when he does street photography but he's got a wry look on his face instead because behind him a concrete parking garage looms and that parking garage is permanently closed due to structural problems

Common milkweed: talking about spot focus, I was about to give up on taking flower pics spontaneously under bright sun but then I started learning how to use more metering modes on my camera

Common milkweed makes a globe of flowers with five petals or maybe sub-flowers and behind that you can see harsh shadows on long blurry leaves
