Close enough to make me itch and then say, "Flippin' amazing..."

Kim Mailhot said...

Is there a way to make a living as a bug photographer ? 'Cause, Baby, you're the best ! Itchy all over but admiring the shot.

Happy Monday, talented One !

love it!

you take a mean macro. ants are so interesting up close, i think. my friend got some really awesome ant shots recently.

Chris said...

Very cool. I think ants are fascinating, and yeah, I feel a bit itchy!

Meri said...

Should I change from my 18 - 200 mm lens to the new micro/macro lens, the one that hasn't yet been freed from its box? And what will I take photos of, what small up-close-and- personal things that I usually shun because I'm focusing on the big picture?

elk said...

uh... yes that would be my question...wink! elk

You see the beauty in even the smallest places and faces, Beth!

Great capture!

*itchy all over*

joyce said...

Prickly...the first thought that comes to mind. If you like ants though, we've got hundreds of red ants all over our property.

How fun! What lens did you use? I also wanted to say, I just love the name of your blog- just sums it all up! :)

Incredible photography. I'm a novice but feel at ease with a camera in my hand! Great site.

Your words made me laugh out loud.
And scratch!

you know, I have great respect for ants. I love seeing them outdoors, and I even expect to have them as picnic guests. But we've had an infestation in our kitchen of black ants and I'm not feeling so generous-hearted toward them there! But the picture? rockin!

Wonderful macro shot. Ant's give me the shivers though (still remember the day I sat in a nest of red ugly biting ones...brrrr)

Patti said...

Great shot Beth and yes- I am itching- yuck!

Ribbon said...

awesome shot!
I love the bug pictures.

Derrick said...

Hi Beth,

This even makes the bud look like a carniverous plant. The ant better watch out!

Relyn said...

I love ants. I love ants so much! Get mad when people kill them, love 'em. This picture is wonderful.
