So my wife loves gardening and our backyard is a mix of fruit trees, vegetables, herbs, and roses. The thing that annoys her the most is when something messes with her plants.

In steps “the vegetarian”. This little guy is my wife’s arch nemesis, and he is a little guy. He’s about the size of a quarter and I almost missed him. Once I saw him I rushed into the house and grabbed the camera. I shot this with a 50mm with a macro filter at 2.8. Using the macro is very unforgiving when it comes to focusing, and the all manual focus didn’t help much either. So I shot the little guy… with my camera. He lives another day. The vegetarian.
