Judy’s Number Game #4: 125
The numbers 125 didn’t reveal much in the media files but I think I have found a good selection.
I am not sure where these were posted originally, although the square ones would suggest a Beckys Square Photo Challenge may have been involved.
I guess this would have been a minimalist challenge

Interesting – I haven’t previously come across this challenge. I may investigate, although I already really do too many! I love your begonia detail and other flowers and insects. When I look at the Teddy Bear Bee shot it seems to me that there are TWO bees and it’s not concentration that they are deep in 😆 Or am I seeing double?!!

Thanks Sarah. I think the double image may be movement and my shutter speed was too low.
Too many challenges….pffftt 😂

I like the ant. I wonder if it was lost, away from its brethren. …?

Nice macros, Brian. One question: the bee is deep in concentration? Is that what they call it down under?

Thank you Egídio. The shutter speed perhaps a bit slow and its a bit of a double exposure on the bees head I think

It fooled me. I thought there were two bees caught in the act. Sorry my attempt to joke was lost in the comment.

I love the one with the bee and all the ants. What a great capture and I’m so happy you are playing along. I also love the foot in the photo.. I often take photos with my own feet at the bottom! Makes me feel totally there!

A nice splash of color and insects for me to gaze upon Brian as my outside landscape is bleak as can be right now.

Your wintering followers in the U.S. need it Brian – 80% of the nation is in a deadly Arctic blast and some are dealing with a lot of snow.

Great shots Brian! Especially since I spent so much time shoveling snow today, lovely to see these flowers and insects.

Thank you Sylvia. Sounds like a snow blower should be on the Christmas list but I guess they are noisy like leaf blowers.
Just think of the exercise and if sore, think of the massage 🙂
