Quite a challenge, to combine the themes for Macro Mondays and Flickr Friday into one photo.
Macro Mondays theme is bubbles, which is covered by the froth, Flicker Fridays theme is straw or stroh, covered by the reusable vegan glass straw.
Actually, the first shot, the glass straw was to short, and complete inside the bee bottle. Took some flower wire, bend it, and put in into the straw to make it taller. Foam is not from the beer, it’s actually liquid. Pustefix to make huge bubbles.
Light was with a strobe, bounced from the next wall to the kitchen, photo was taken on kitchen counter, hat to remove some reflection from the beer bottle.
Feedback and constructive critique wellcome.

A pill woodlouse (Armadillidium vulgare) from my garden in Aberaeron - also goes by several other names including pill bug, roll-poly, slater, potato bug and doodle bug. They are quite large, being about 18mm long, slate grey and gets their name because of their ability to roll tightly into a ball (like a pill) for protection. You can make out its eyes here, either side of the smaller plate in the centre of the frame - they look like blackberries. Woodlice are terrestrial isopod crustaceans, more related to shrimps, prawns, crabs and lobsters than insects. They are very successful being adapted to exist in damp dark environments and are important detritivores.

Stack for Macro Mondays, as defined as pile or heap of items placed one on top of the other with at least three single elements. And since I have a small bag full of them, for one of the last Macro Monday challenges, why not use them again.
Crown caps stack from different brands of beer, stacked on top of each other, is less simple then it looks, the just break down fast, by mechanical movement or minor shocks.
Feel free to leave comments and constructive feedback. No P1/C1 or seen in group and similar.
