🤔 I Don't Know What's Better, The Pics Or The Story

in Black And White3 years ago (edited)

It's been a while now my fellow B&W appreciators since I dropped something here. Time seems to fly, at least when you get older.

A big LOL here with a little bit of tears in it. Some of you might know what I mean ;).

Anyways, I had some time to kill today while waiting for a shopping cart.

🛒

Whoever might be interested why that was, I will explain it a little further in my tomorrows post.

See how I snuck a little advertisement for myself in here? Another LOL on that occasion.

So while waiting I discovered some tiny movement on the ground.
With my eagle eyes I spotted ants. You know, those tiny ants, not the big ones.

I think it is Tapinoma sessile, the ant that when you squeeze it smells like coconut and rum, no kidding.
There was a dead one among them and some gathered around the body dragging it around.

Hmmmmm thinking about the coconut rum smell I know why lol.

Anyways, I was still waiting and grabbed my smartphone to crawl around on the floor like a person that just escaped psychiatry.

🤪

Just to take pics that I can share with you.

People waiting with me seemed confused. In their eyes I could read that some where thinking about calling police or an ambulance.

Luckily they didn't. Might have also been because they got a cart.

🛒

Soooooooooooo, I took a couple pics, macros as you can see.
Great macros taken with the Huawei, I mean those ants are like 1⁄16 to 1⁄8 inches or 1.5 to 3 mm small.
And I thought most of them are naturally B&W kinda.

I think we can generously ignore the little brownish in two of the pictures ;).

You can praise me in the comments, please do lol.

While pressing the button click click click I thought about my Italian lesson on Duolingo. Animals was the topic and I learned that "la formica" is ant in Italian.

🤓

See, now you learned some more besides that they have this awesome smell. Not that I can confirm it, if I would have smelled them people might have finally called an ambulance.

The main psychiatry is not too far away from where I live.

Anyways, I got a cart and this is where I leave you with my ant shots now.

🐜







Masterpiece ant shots are going to be dropped for todays or tomorrows #monomad challenge.

Please drop a comment and make me believe those are tiny masterpieces, the ants certainly are.

They play a very important role in nature, are highly social and you should not kill them.

If you like the smell of coconuts and rum get a drink.

🍹


Just mentioning that I set some beneficiaries for that post ;)

Gracias, merci, danke, thanks, grazie...that's all languages that I can think of now lol.

Lol, I LOVE these! And the story. Well done!

Wait until you read the story tomorrow 😂 . Thanks though 🤗

I honestly have a hard time deciding if the story or the photos are better. Seriously, kudos to you, for getting such great shots of these teeny, tiny creatures. Really great!
I have had my fair share of crawling around to get a good angle on something that nobody else would even consider taking a photography of, so I am very sure I understand your feelings being watched while doing so.

Lol thanks. Makes me feel good to know that I'm not alone 😄 People wondering should take a different perspective on life period I'd say 🤣 It's all about angles and perspectives 🙃

Agreed. People would be amazed what they can find out simply by changing their POV a little bit.
