Nature can be frightening, but generally it is very beautiful.

A friend at Bumi hills on lake Kariba, many years ago, told me looking for wildlife of any kind you must look through the trees and growth. I apply the same to bugs. The camera does the rest and I spend little time taking the photos. I am naturally an impatient person!!
