I have just known that there's a National Caterpillar Day, celebrated on September 15!

I missed it this year, so let me celebrate it a month late! 🐛

Here are some caterpillar photos I took last year.

📷Fujifilm Xt2, Xh2

Tamron 90mmf2.8 macro, laowa 65mm f2.8 macro

One shot and stacked

Which one is your favorite?

THE CLOSER, THE STRANGER

We draw closer, thinking we'll see more. Yet some distances help us see things for what they are, while others leave us unable to tell what we're looking at.

Same subjects. Different distances. Different worlds.
