A Live Composite taken at Whitley Bay Seafront.

Here's a straight macro shot. No choice of preference here.

 

Most amusing to watch this little green bee fly from bloom to bloom...and then move around in circles sampling the local brew.

 

The photography is interesting...and a bit tedious. Most of the time the bee's head is below / behind the little yellow trees. Trick is to try to wait until that moment when the bee is both parallel to the 'film plane' of the camera AND has its head in a photogenic position.

 

This cropping is intended to show that movement around the interior of the blossom.

Ok, so at first when you see this shot, you're thinking that it is a zebra longwing (Heliconius charithonia).

 

That in itself is correct, but when I look a little closer, I'm reminded of a joke my late father used to tell.

 

It was about an elephant who every morning as he was going to drink some water he passed an anthill. And every day he stuck his trunk down into the hill and blew as hard as he could and watched the ants and their house being thrown into the air.

 

While the elephant thought it was very amusing, the ants unsurprisingly weren't quite as fond of his routine so one morning when the elephant came around, they were prepared. On a given signal, every single ant threw itself at their tormentor and tried biting him.

 

The elephant however, just laughed at them and shook his body, causing all the ants to fly off.

 

All but one. A single ant had managed to hang on and was still on the elephant's neck!

 

That's when one of the other and screamed at the top of his lungs: "Strangle him, Tony! Strangle him!"

 

About now, I bet you're wondering what this has to do with a heliconiid butterfly, right? Well, if you look at the legs of the butterfly, you'll notice that "Tony" is there, trying to claim the butterfly as his prize!

 

The ant is mot likely a common red ant (Myrmica rubra) or some closely related species. M. rubra is often (and erroneously) called the European fire ant based on behaviour, but it isn't closely related to the real fire ant.

I found this on my walk ... an abandoned truck in the woods. I took many shots as I walked around (carefully) and peeked inside. It looks like it has been here a long while. There is moss and rust growing on its parts. Amusing to see it on the screen. #cy365 day 268 'amuse yourself' Is that a phone number? lol

It looks as if the Three Musketeers are having a committee meeting, and find the topic somewhat amusing!

While capturing the light trails along Hazel I had to abort an exposure due to a bike that was approaching. This is the result which was interesting.

India Day 9 - Khajuraho

The walls of the 1000 year old Hindu Templesat Khajuraho are covered in intricate carvings, some of them from the Kama Sutra. I think this elephant finds it amusing to watch this couple practising! The Mughal emperor used elephants to execute prisoners ... by crushing them underfoot (which is what the elephant is also doing))!!
