On this week’s Silent Sunday entry, my friend commented and said “You guys are very Attenborough on a Sunday, love it!” and I realised that I really do love taking photos of nature, creatures weird and wonderful and generally anything that makes a good macro shot!
I decided that, in honour of the school holidays and the good weather we’re having, that I’d do a little linky where you can get ‘Closer to Nature’ and post your best nature photos. There are no rules other than that it must be a photo of something nature related, but it can be just a photo or have a story with it. I’ve made a little badge too, that you can add to your post, which is in the sidebar and will link back here to everyone’s posts.
Have fun, I can’t wait to see your photos! If enough people link up, I may do it again throughout the holidays.
Here’s mine – Husband took it using my Canon Ixus compact camera with the macro on:

Today, I went to the beach with my kids. I found a sea shell and
gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She put the shell to her
ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it
pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is completely off topic but I had
to tell someone!
Great goods from you, man. I have keep in mind your stuff prior to
and you’re simply extremely wonderful. I really like
what you’ve acquired here, really like what you
are saying and the way through which you assert it.
You’re making it entertaining and you still take care of to stay it sensible.
I cant wait to read far more from you. This is actually a terrific website.
Hi, have just linked up, the shot was a perfect macro image taken on my slr but when I view it on my blog it looks blurry, not sure if it will be that way for you, hope not.
I posted one of water, Is that nature related?
Absolutely, go ahead and link up! 🙂

Great idea, more than happy to join in (go on make it regular!)… Love the close-up of the snail/slug!! I am not sure I personally would call my blog a photo blog, but I know a few people might! 🙂 http://www.thesojournseries.com/bavaria/

Really glad I stumbled across your photo linky this morning, hope you like what I’ve put up 🙂
My boys love getting out and about so i have linked up with this weeks walk in the woods. My eldest picked up a slug recently – doesn’t look as cute as a snail!
I’m really chuffed with my photo 🙂 I’ve shared the linky about
Ooh, another nature link-up how exciting! I have loads of nature pics on both my blogs so I would definitely link up on a regular basis – I’ve linked up with our school trip pictures, lots of nature!

Glad I found your blog 🙂 Will thank Pippa from Story of Mum! x
I’ve got one I posted a couple of weeks ago on my blog – would that count if I added the linky? It’s a bee on a poppy 🙂
