The Tiny Disappearing Act


One of the nice things about photography is that it gives you the opportunity to observe and understand the world around you.  So this scene was particularly frustrating.  I've got no idea what was going on here.

Dozens of these rocks were lying in the River Avon and each rock had one - and only one - sunbathing passenger.  As I moved in closer to photograph this individual, I was amazed at how close I could get without it scuttling off to safety.  On closer inspection, however, it was obvious that there was nobody home.  The previous occupant of the insect suit had carefully unzipped it and gone off to somewhere else, dressed as something else.  Perhaps the aftermath of an insect fancy-dress party?
