Tiny Friends.

Some of our tiny insects reveal how interesting they are when seen in detail. Many keep pests down in our gardens.

They live in their own tiny universe oblivious of the bigger picture

There is a galaxy to be found in a patch of nettles, makes me wonder are we nothing more than the same. Are we "trapped" inside a living being we call Universe?

Re: Tiny Friends.

Much overlooked our little friends I used to love watching hoverflies but there don't seem to be so many around these days.
Lovely photographs Nom .

Great analogy ! I am not surprised by your words. Obviously, by the pictures you take, you see the mystery of nature and its reality unfolding before your eyes. Carry on, my brother...

Re: Tiny Friends.

Love those pictures, Nom. With the naked eye, we miss many in the hordes of insects that surround us.

Re: Tiny Friends.

I came in from the garden earlier and a bee fell off my hair! I have a little house full of them down where I was emptying pots.
He didn't look very well so I put him on a geranium, but he's still there!

Re: Tiny Friends.

As always, very nice photo's Nom.
I'm a bit nervous of some insects, I suppose it's not being sure what they are and whether they bite or sting.
