Hello friends and community, I hope you are having a nice day, this blog will be my participation for the PhotoFeed contest but also the opportunity to appreciate a little of the nature that surrounds us, especially the smallest and simplest details.

Hola amigos y comunidad, espero que estén teniendo un lindo día, este blog será la participación para el concurso de PhotoFeed pero también la oportunidad de apreciar un poco la naturaleza que nos rodea, especialmente los detalles más pequeños y simples.

Hidden among the leaves of the conifers was this golden cocoon, its almost architectural formation caught my attention through dozens of golden threads that held a main structure, without a doubt nature is wonderful in every aspect, these fine threads are the perfect protective chamber against predators, pests and the harshness of the weather, for the photo I used a simple focus on the subject while blurring the background as much as possible, thus highlighting the intricate textures and the contrast between green and yellow of the cocoon, I imagine that more than belonging to a butterfly or a moth this cocoon belongs to certain species of weaving spiders that use pines as their habitat and are widely distributed in this area of America.

Oculto entre las hojas de las coníferas estaba este capullo dorado, me llamó mucho la atención su formación casi arquitectónica a través de decenas de hilos dorados que sujetaban una estructura principal, sin dudas la naturaleza es maravillosa en cada aspecto, estos hilos finos son la cámara protectora perfecta contra depredadores, plagas y la inclemencia del tiempo, para la foto usé un enfoque simple en el sujeto mientras desenfoqué al máximo el fondo, resaltando así las texturas intrincadas y el contraste entre verde y amarillo del capullo, me imagino que más que de una mariposa o una polilla este capullo pertenece a ciertas especies de arañas tejedoras que utilizan los pinos como su hábitat y están ampliamente distribuidas en esta zona de América.
