Dead Wasp and Tiffany Ring

This is my entry for this week's #steemitphotochallenge : Nature Macro.

I took this image a while back but thought it relevant for this challenge so decided to share it here.

It was staged after finding the wasp dead on my windowsill.

This got me thinking about the brief and transient nature of life and how so many of us are obsessed with material trappings which we cannot take with us.

Hence the juxtaposition with the Tiffany Ring darling!

With Love.

That particular one looks like it had a good life feeding on pests I expect from your house. I would imagine it was a solitary wasp some are sociable creatures & some choose to be loners.
They are very much like big ants with wings,
Did you know ants only develop wings once it's part of their reproduction cycle, All ants fly but only do it once they all mate in the air in numbers to protect the species from predators like birds.
It's a massive orgy in the air. If you see an ant with wings stick around & watch what happens next lol

Kinda got a mild phobia for insecty non-delights generally ~

but got a seriously real dislike for winged ants when they swarm.

Itty bitty, fluttery flyers!

That said isn't nature amazing.

Getting warmer!

(PS I signed us both up for Steemit UBI trial ~ you have to sponser someone and then you both qualify for upvotes somehow?! Time will tell how that works out eh).

I have a wasps nest guarding my tent. I first went to pitch it with my son and you have to get over a small fence to get there, We both went over the fence & I landed right on the nest I got stung about 20 times right on the backside I must of been stung about 30 times in all, my son got away with about 5 stings.
Whenever he is stroppy I only have to remind him of it, No way can anyone keep a straight face remembering their dad dancing around like that, he can try but it's a futile attempt. :)
You will have to give me a link for the UBI trial, Sounds worth a try <3

Now that is a funny story :)

Just as well neither of you are super sensitive/allergic eh.

Here is the link to the UBI: https://steemit.com/@steembasicincome although I think I have done what needed to be done?
