"an insect's view of the plain"

So I am LOVING @acheofrog' s book club based on Freeman Pattersons book, The Art of Seeing.
http://365project.org/discuss/themes-competitions/18757/aug-book-club-week-1. This challenge was based on making the most out of chance opportunities .By tossing a Hula Hoop onto the lawn and investigating what was within the circle, this exercise provided to opportunity to take advantage of a very limited pallet. I had to really focus to find something interesting to photograph. I was hoping for an insect ( of course) but when none appeared ....I decided to get right down on the ground and see what an insect would see if he were crawling under the clover and dried leaves. :)
very cool edges here...

I love your enthusiasm, Hope, and all the great ideas you've been having from the book club. I love the little fuzzies and details here that you would normally never see.
