Stuck in the Water


This was taken at the same lake as Bending in the Wind. The water level had gotten quite high in some areas and became more swampy looking.

Bending in the Wind


This picture was taken at a small lake. It was quite windy that day and the grass and cattails were bending in the breeze.

Looking at You

 
This picture is of a black bird. It surprised me by landing so close to me.

Light At the End of the Path


This picture was taken in a wooded area where I live. It is a path that's kinda hidden off the main path. It took walking by it a couple times for me to really see it.

Hitching A Ride


A black and white picture of a sparrow on the side mirror of a vehicle. This was taken in the driveway of our house.

Taking a Rest


This picture of the dragonfly was hard to get. It took quite a few tries to manage to get this. It didn't like to stay still for to long before it would fly to another piece of grass.

Baby Duck


This picture is of a duckling swimming among reeds. It kept playing peek-a-boo with me, peeking out from behind the reeds and cattails.

Let Sleeping Dogs Lie


This is a black and white photo of a dog taking a nap. She doesn't like her picture taken so I've learned to be sneaky about taking it. This time I managed to catch her taking a nap outside on the deck.

White Flowers


This is a black and white photo of some flowers in our backyard.

After the Rain


Water drops on grass after a rain one evening. This was taken during a break between rainstorms.

Floating Feather


A white feather floating along on the top of a lake.

Reflection


This duck was very happy to have their picture taken. She would swim quite close which gave me the chance to get this picture.


Lonely Path


This photo was taken in a park in the city I live in. It becomes hard to imagine that there is traffic just beyond the trees as you walk the paths that all lead to a lake that birds call home.

Welcome

Welcome to Natura Photographica. This name came to be because while I love and enjoy any form of photography, nature photography has my become more of a passion for me. I love the challenge of getting the picture in a small window of time and the rush that comes when a picture turns out the way you wanted or even better than you thought.

Feel free to comment whether good or bad. It will help me improve in my photography.

I hope you enjoy the looking at the pictures as much as I enjoyed taking them.

Thank you
Cassandra
