Fireflies in my backyard

by Josh Nickerson on Sunday, July 5th, 2009

I was watching the fireflies and decided to see if I could get a nice shot… Not having the right equipment for low light photography, I set my cam to a low shutter speed, the end result looked more like day depspite it being very dark out, so these pics have had the contrast tweaked to bring them back to night.

Yaaaay, I tore up the earth, constructed a shabby box frame with some 2×4′s I found in the garage, dug up the grass and weeds, and added 3 bags of rich soil to remake and replant my tamaters!!.. Well they were my roommates, but the hell with him, after I did all that work, its mine now!

GROW UP STRONG BOYS, CAUSE I’M GONNA EAT YEA!

Also found this growing on the side of the house.. It’s very pretty… and I have no idea what it is, soooo Kat will comment with what it is (cause she’s smart like that), so if you want to know scroll down and look for her comment :D (and in the background you can see my neighbors excavated house – He just had the new foundation poured. and now they are finishing up… I’ll attach a pic below of when it was raised…)

And here’s his raised house.. The raised the sucker up with a series of hydraulic jacks and suspended it on stacks of 4x4s… It was damn fun to watch.

I’m very amateur with photography, but I get a great deal of pleasure from shooting scenery and wildlife… This little girl makes a great subject.
