...I know this is Friday Night Photos of Love, but I had to throw some humor in tonight. I am sorry for posting and running this week...very busy, but there were three special birthdays this week. My deepest thanks to those that still visited my pics, even though I wasn't around.

 

...I hope you're enjoying a romantic evening with the one you love, my friends, and I hope you're enjoying it with a little humor, a little fun.

the wings of this butterfly reminded me of a sailboat, thus the boating phrase title

A hummingbird moth keeps a vigilant eye on the camera as it momentarily sucks nectar. These nimble, furry little creatures flit rapidly from flower to flower, so I use the technique of setting up the camera on a tripod, focusing on a flower. . . and waiting. Re-focus was on the eye. Nikon D300; ƒ9; 1/640 sec. Taken 23/07/08; 11:02:23. My garden in Oradour Fanais, France. View On Black View LARGE

Wait. Don't clean that yet. Yup, that's what I said to the misses right after she got through making some homemade blueberry syrup. The spoon covered with syrup just caught my eye and screamed macro. It's a weird subject but it works.

 

The Ant Bully Series

 

I got interested in taking macros of these ants after I watched the movie called "The Ant Bully", so I am dedicating all the series to all of you "Lucas (Peanuts), The Destroyer" out there. Have mercy!!!

 

Booo !!!...This metallic blue jumper is one willing subject...Ever curious, it's fun to capture these crawlies...Enjoy your weekend to all my flickr friends...Cheers, Ringgo.
