Weekly Photo Challenge: Focus

Dennis

Some days ago, I found a bug near the stairway of my mother. We took the bug and went outside and droped the bug on the pavement and later on the grass.

I just thought “That´s unfair!”. 🙂 I have some more Photos with Flowers and Insects here… My Photos of Insects. My Photos of Flowers. Continue reading This Insect didn´t want to be on the Photo.
