Playing with bugs on flowers
This weekend I finally found the chance to get out and take some pictures, as Saturday was a very nice day. I wandered around in my backyard for awhile, looking in the normal places, and found nothing that I hadn’t photographed several times already. The shoot was briefly interrupted as Eitan, Nathan, and I looked for ants that we could put in their ant farm. They were very into it but the ants we wound up using turned out to be too small as they later escaped. We found one bigger ant, but since we couldn’t find any friends for him we let him go in place of the smaller and more plentiful ones.
After satisfying the kids’ ant curiosity, I began to think about choosing better backgrounds for some of the insects. As we have a number of flowers in bloom, I decided to try that out. My first subject was an earwig that I found.
