Blue Ant

Polyrhachis cyaniventris - Blue ant

A super cool ant from the Philippines. The specimen was sent up by some friends from Saigon. It’s pretty precious, so I photographed it from a little farther away for documentation purposes :))

Portrait of a small Tiger Beetle

I never imagined there were tiger beetles no bigger than the tip of a chopstick until I came across this one. Unlike the large, brightly colored varieties, this species has a rough, dull-colored shell that looks like a piece of rusted metal—like an old robot 😂.

Hibicus flowers - Fujifilm Xh2 + CZ jenna tessar 50mmf2.8

The Journey of a pink Hibicus flower

A lovely Flowers has just begun to bloom,

yet sooner or later, someone will pluck it,

and carry it away to somewhere unknown.

For a while, it rests in beauty

upon an old, moss-covered wall.

Then, forgotten and alone,

it lies by the roadside,beneath the gentle rain of an afternoon

Pheidole sp Queen ant

A Queen ant of genus Pheidole, may be Pheidole parva.

This ant is only slightly larger than the tip of a needle. I found it just after I bought my first 4x infinity-corrected objective lens and had just finished building a tube setup for it.
