Playing In The Field

I've enjoyed being down our field today trying to capture butterflies. I've photographed my first small copper and brown argus of the season. I love both of them. I'm loving playing with my new wide angle macro lens too. I've included a couple of images taken with that in extras. I like that I can get a close up of a nursery web spider with Jazzy visible in the background.

My main image is a common field grasshopper taken with my Canon 100mm.

Today's poem is Avenue A by Frank O'Hara. http://lumpy-pudding.tumblr.com/post/80082881/avenue-a-frank-ohara-we-hardly-ever-see-the-moon

FOH lived in New York so maybe he didn't see the moon much because it was obscured by the high-rise buildings? I read of Red Grooms, he is a multimedia pop-artist. I've researched El Greco's heavens too. He had a way of including in his pictures a sort of conduit to heaven. No idea what the "cathedral of Januaries" is. Another poem about how looking up at the moon makes us feel.
