We definitely agree, however, that good nature programming can really inspire. Hi Michael,

With nature, 'Extraordinary is in the ordinary' if you take the time to go look for it! I have just seen the first preview of National Geographic's 6-part series of Tourism Queensland's 'Best Job in the World'. I know it might seem a bit off topic but the truth is that National Geographic has helped ignite junior biologists around the world! I was excited about the chance to see a place I traveled to in the past...in HD! Agree!

We definitely agree with your thoughts. As for the tent caterpillar, we had been seeing them for days as they crossed the road during our walks, and were always amazed by the intricacy of their colors. We were so curious to get a close-up with the camera, and were delighted with the results. What a spectacular creature! Thanks MObugs!

It is always fun to look at the world in a different way. Things we often take for granted have a subtle beauty all their own. I think my favorite photo of this collection is the tent caterpillar....gorgeous markings. Absolutely beautiful photos. It is always fun to look at the world in a different way.

The dandelion was our favorite -- sort of a like a huge marshmallow thingy. Definitely weird =) Hello Sharon,

It really is amazing to see things close up, isn’t it. The dandelion was our favorite — sort of a like a huge marshmallow thingy. Definitely weird =)

Everyday items are truly magical at that range. I would have never guessed the dandelion. The others I MIGHT have. But probably not. :) I LOVE those macro shots!
