Nature is amazing alive and as well in death. I found an old sticky mouse trap under my back yard steps. It must have been there for a year or two. I t had fossils of lizzards and bugs frozen in time at their end. It struck my as a unique picture that I had to take.


Your shot was very cool! It made me think of Jerry Seinfeld in "The Bee Movie".

Check out the the mouse trap photo at my site www.rlh-photography.com in the objects gallery at the end. #5504949

How fun, Katy! I tried something similar and it didn't pan out. I need a good macro lens like you must have! Congrats on this awesome Gold winner. BP just showcased it in the scrolling winner circle area. :)
