The photos in this book came from many visits outdoors, to creeks and ponds and mountain trails and botanical gardens all across Southern California. I was able to capture these insects with my camera as they took a break from their flight because I walk trails quietly, patiently looking at each flower, on each stalk or stem, onto each leaf. Insects are easily frightened, and off they fly or run as your shadow crosses their eyes or as your breath reaches their sensitive hairs. Approach flowers slowly, carefully, with your camera at the ready. Step softly, for insects have survived for millions of years because they can sense the vibrations that approaching feet make. Beautiful life surrounds you, very small and normally unseen. Get outdoors and find it. Capture it with your camera so that when you return home you can enjoy the wonders that Earth has in store for you.
