Looks like this little guy found a dry spot during a rain shower at Petit Jean a couple weeks ago, or maybe big brother just was taking care of him.

Matthew, nice close up, it looks like you have been crawling around on the ground to get this one!

Yea Tom I was very close to the ground, I was shooting an old Minolta SRT which means manual focus of course. I found myself scooting on my belly to get the composition and focus I wanted. Not exactly the best way to stay clean.
