Happy New Year everyone! I tried to be a night owl last night but tapped out before midnight. 🙂 We did get a nice visit from our striped skunk.

Back in my University days at UC Irvine, our mascot was the Anteater. So, I was really hoping to see a real anteater in Costa Rica, and that wish came true on one of our last days there! This one is tearing into a termite mound. Corcovado National Park, Costa Rica.

A rain forest toad, Osa Peninsula, Costa Rica. This was the first time I have tried focus stacking with my Olympus and I was impressed. I need to use it much more often! I need to remember to compose a little loser since the algorithm needs to crop the image a toad as part of the stacking.
