An Ode A Day Keeps the Surgeon At Bay… Or maybe not…

I admit it. I’m seeing another service 🙂
Actually, I’m micro blogging. Sort of.
I am involved in a Google + photography venture called Ode A Day (#OdeADay). The concept is easy. Post a single picture of a dragonfly or damselfly every day.
And frankly, this short-form blogging is a refreshing change from the things I do here. The blurbs are quick and to the point. The format is easy. And it takes 5-10 minutes to make it happen if the image is ready. I still like the regular blogging that I do here, but to get an image out, tell a little story, and leave is kind of cool.
So come join in the fun. Follow the likes of +Kimberly Hosey who curates the project (she’s nearly half-way through her year). Or the others who do not necessarily make it every day, but are getting close to the concept.
About the Image:
A slightly differe crop of this image of a Variegated Meadowhawk (Sympetrum corruptum) is image #22 in my series of 365. It was shot recently at Mitchell Lake Audubon Center. Standard Gear, fill-flash on, 1/160th at f/18 on the tripod.
I’d love to join but don’t have nearly enough pictures.. But I’ve bookmarked #OdeADay and will follow it! Thanks for sharing, I can never see enough dragonfly/damselfly pictures 🙂
It is a daunting concept. Birders would likely have an easier time of it. Thankfully I have close to 3 years worth of Dragons and Damsels to choose from so I should be in relatively good shape. Happy you’re coming along for the ride both with me but also the likes of Kimberly Hosey and Michael Hensley
