Gosh, there’s so much beauty all around us that even the little ones on the little glimpses really speak as loud as thunder!

I especially like the reflection of the plants and the fish in the fourth photo. It took me a moment to actually see what was happening!

All are stunning. Your details are so sharp. They are amazing.

You probably viewed these on a computer screen, which would reveal details without enlarging the photo. The koi photo (#4) looks good on my phone, but the reflections of the dragonflies in the first photo are lost in the background on the small screen.

Especially the one with the bee, and the one with the fish.

But I'm suspicious about the moths. I think one of them is getting ready to cheat on his or her partner.

While they have the wedge-shaped structure of some moths, these are actually skippers, a kind of butterfly.

The dragonfly on the lily pad in the first one and the goldfish in the fourth one I especially liked. That goldfish photo would win a photo contest, I think! Details so sharp in all of them. Interesting images. Very nice collection!

If viewed on your phone, were you able to see the reflections of the two dragonflies in photo #1? Details in some of the full-frame photos get lost on a phone screen. My hope is that they'll be viewed on something larger. That said, I love the look of the koi photo when viewed on my phone. The bumblebee photo also looks great on a small screen.
