It’s been my plan to start this series where I will be featuring what I call “Little Wonders” comprising photos of small organisms from plant and, sometimes, animal kingdom. These little wonders are all favorites and photographed by me, of course, during my travels to different places particularly mountains in the northern and southern parts of the biggest island in the Philippines, Luzon. Little wonders are small organisms that are often neglected; yet, each of them present a striking beauty i f you take a closer look.
Today is the day for that plan to come to fruition as I am now launching the first episode of my Little Wonders Series. In this episode, the little wonders will come from my recent adventure to Laguna on my way to that famous waterfall last 06 November 2012.
And here they are:
Fauna
Flora
I still want to improve my photography skills so I’d be really happy to see comments and suggestions from fellow bloggers and non-bloggers on each of my posts for this series, especially pros in this craft.

The pleasure is all mine!
Great photos! Even better if you can marco it further
I wish I could with my point-and-shoot camera. Thank you very much anyway!
awesome pics
Maraming salamat, Belladona!
Awesome shots Sony! And I love the idea of the series. I can’t wait to see more!
Take care.
I appreciate the beautiful words, Joe. Thank you to the bottom of my heart!
Beautiful pictures Sony – looking forward to more in this series!
That’s so sweet, Bonnie. It makes me want to post the next right now if only I could …
I love your photos. There is so much beauty in nature
Yes, and Mother Nature really inspires me to help preserving its beauty.
Impressive Bro. Except for the first photo…the rest of this insects and plants I have not seen yet. It’s like a clip for “Avatar” or from the story “Pedro Penduko.” The macro effects are just stunning. Beautifully done. Can’t wait for more. Hope this award makes your day….

God bless you always and your family.
I read about this through an email in my phone last night. Ms. Connie actually commented on my ABOUT ME and she told that you nominated me for the award. An hour ago, I visited her site and I did mention how thankful I am to you and her for making a part of this prestigious award. Bro, words can’t explain how much I’m grateful for all the support you’ve given and you’re giving me. MARAMING SALAMAT!
awesome shots sir.
Thank you very much!
Oh. My. Dear. God. That spider!! Was it really as big as it looks??? :S
Yes, it’s as big as it looks.
*shudder* you are a brave soul. I salute you.
Thanks, but believe me when I say those arachnids are pretty harmless and sweet creatures.
These are absolutely brilliant shots, Sony
Thanks, Bluebee!
The Little Wonders series is a great idea. Excellent captures Sony. I like the little snail
That’s my favorite too … and the fungi for flora.
These are truly amazing and wonderful. Great photos, Sony!
I love the adjectives, Nandini. Thank you!
nice macro’s. quite a nice (and a bit scary) fauna you have over there
… I rather like to see them on picture than IRL.
greetz
(D)ocular
Don’t worry, (D)OCULAR. Those creatures, like I said in my previous comment, are harmless. Still, that would sure be a problem if you naturally fear them.
On my own point of view, you captured the above images like a pro, improving it could make you super-pro my friend hahaha
No problem
These pictures are really amazing Sony. As always great job. Bravo!
Thank you, thank you!
Wow amazing shots, Sony! The photography is excellent and I love that it’s in macro! The colors are vivid and alive. I can almost see the spider move :O Thanks for sharing! I can’t wait for the next photos of the series
The best I can give so far. I wish the macro feature of my point-and-shoot could do better than that but a DSLR will sure answer the details I want to present on the photos. H’m … Wishful thinking. Having said that, I still love my GE X5. I don’t think I will buy a new one anytime soon. I still believe we can go further — TOGETHER.
Wow Sony! These shots are amazing! “Little Wonder Series” sounds like a fantastic idea to me. I can’t get enough of these shots. I’m looking forward to the rest of the series. This is Mother Nature at her finest.
Again, I like the kind of “push” you gave me, Donna. It made me more confident to push on the series. Thanks, thanks!
I am not a photography artist but I enjoyed and so far liked the way you have captured these little wonders of yours,Bro.It’s just by being creative on your shots that you become a real artist or photo enthusiast…Very nice post my friend..I’ll wait for the next part..
Give me a hug, bro. Common I need it. Haha … Don’t blame me. You’re just so sweet!
I need not comment on those beautiful pictures, that’s given, what I want to give praise is this evolution of yours into becoming a really great interesting blogger, I love this new “series” theme.
You too, give me hug! Salamat ng marami — for the encouraging words, always!
