I know that the blog header says 'photography by Brian Cutting,' but today that is a lie. I took none of these, and it won't take you long to figure out why:
C'est moi. When lizards are everywhere, why shoot the one on the ugly plastic bag? I think maybe the hat is a bit too tight. |
That's right, the perspective has been flipped and today I'm highlighting fashion in wildlife photography:
With most of my insect photos, I find that a pleasing natural background is critical. Khakis are great for an image that makes you think 'what was I thinking?' |
"Just a few more shots and we can go - I may never see this again"
"Would you mind holding my flash?"
"Blast! It's blown out"
"Can you please pull that blade of grass out of the way?"
"Argh, underexposed"
"You guys can hike ahead, I'll catch up" (unlikely with 10 extra pounds of photo gear in my pack)
"Just a few more and you can make it stop biting you"
"Shucks, lens cap"
"Oh, sorry! I should have warned you that the flash was about to go off in your face"
Nevertheless, a few people still go on adventures with me.
Salamanders in the rain, Shenandoah, Virginia. Let's face it, there is no way to look cool while doing this. |
Thanks to Aliesha Shutte, Jeff Smith, Noelle Diana, Doug Tallamy, and Kiri Cutting for the photos and for being such endlessly patient fellow travelers. Your night vision will recover in an hour or so...

Thanks for sharing your work. I now need to add some interactivity to the offline map, so that a user can get info after clicking on a point.
