I used to drink so much coffee, I would joke that my blood type was C, for caffeine. But, as I get older, I get heartburn easily. Even though I crave it all the time, I have just one cup of coffee every other day. (I'm so disciplined about this, I'm disgusted with myself!) I feel like a vampire who's been forced to ration his blood drinking habit. 8P
Love the shot. Incredible detail and focus. I didn't want to read the commentary though - I get a lot of heart burn but I'm sure I couldn't live without coffee!
Gorgeous detailed shot! I hear you about the heart burn. It has just started happening to me, I have never had it in my life, and the last week or so I have had it quite a bit. Getting old sucks I guess, I love coffee too.
Decaff no good? It took my husband ages to convert from regular to decaff, headaches, shakes the works but he did it eventually. I think the ant is drinking nectar - which for me is wine.......................................
Stunning capture! Love all the little details like the eyes and the reflection in them! I am totally with you on the caffeine hit! I must drink about 5 cups of tea a day and try to limit myself to one coffee. I start twitching otherwise LOL.
Great shot of the little guy! Most days I get one can of coke for my caffeine ration.You can tell yesterday was bad - two cans and a bottle of it and I was still falling asleep by evening!
Wow....thats incredible. You never cease to amaze. This is stunning. Detail, color and pov are all great. As for coffee....I know exactly how you feel. Being that I'm usually awake for over 24 to 48 hours straight every week, sometimes more then once, I drink a lot of coffee to keep me awake. Got a stomach virus a few weeks ago, and my stomach hasn't been the same since. I have one cup and I feel like I'm gonna throw up. Its killing me. I'm like an addict thats gone cold turkey.
The face looks like that of a bird. What a fabulous shot! I gotta have my 2 cups of black coffee every morning. Accidentally bought decaf by mistake and yesterday wondered what was wrong....I was like a grouchy zombie then realized what happened. Fortunately I had just purchased some regular coffee on sale and quickly brewed a pot.
Instant FAV - an amazing capture. Love it. As far as coffee, goes, I limit myself to two cups in the morning - I adore my morning coffee, grind the beans fresh each morning and savor each drop!
It's amazing how when we stop and look at bugs, it's much easier to relate to them, and harder to dislike them. I find myself anthropomorphising them. This one, (apart from ant biology meaning it is stating the obvious) just has to be a female....
A great, big, carefully poised, thirst-quenching "THANK YOU!" to everyone for stopping by! It's a red weaver ant. I like how they look, so I can't resist shooting them when I get the chance. Love their long legs. I do wish I could drink more coffee! Thank you so much for your support and encouragement for my project. I'm grateful.
Seriously, I reckon you take amongst the best macros I've seen. Always so clear and just wonderful! This, is NO exception. Ps... on the coffee front... I'd die without my coffee!! I deal with the heartburn etc with meds lol.... I heart my coffee hard!
There is no way I could limit myself to one cup of coffee. I'd never get out of bed!
