An Ant Story
The stems of the peony bush pushed up out of the ground.
Up the peony branch marched an ant to his destiny.
A second ant marched quietly behind unknowingly to meet his destiny atop the plump peony bud where the two would meet. From the ground up they came....

That is so awesome and I am jealous beyond my ability to articulate!
Wow!! This is the MOST AWESOME post ever!! Amazing! You create magic here!
Think they kissed and made up?
I was hoping for the round by round commentary. Who won? Was it a knockout or by decision? I usually have my music turned down cause my office is next to Lily's room but I left it on tonight. PERFECT accompanyment to the images. Just great stuff today (as always).
This is a FANTASTIC post! I LOVE the story you created with the photos and words - absolutely wonderful!
wow! what an interesting story board! I am quite impressed.
so clever I loved it sandy
Well... besides being equally as jealous as Quilly... my friend, I would KILL to have enough time on my hands (and patience) to sit and wait for something like this to happen. This, I am discovering is KEY to being a GREAT photographer. Patience. I will never BE a GREAT photographer! You however are awesome!
The Duel of the dualling ants. Amazing story with the pictures. Good close shots all of them, I loved following the story.
I was admiring the photos, making a mental note to go out and check my peonies...and then the music came on, I laughed really hard. Oh my goodness girl, the pics are great but the music kicks it right to the top!
Very nice ant-pics!
Carletta: I love the pictures and what fitting music. You out did yourself today.
Great story - also great blog you have - such beautiful photos and tales you tell.
Thanks for visiting my blog and your kind comments.
Okay, you've out did yourself today and I am with Quilly! How friggin awesome is all of this? The ants, the song, all of it!
My mouth is still hanging open!
Lol! This is funny! I really like it. Those ants are really cute. Great shots!
Excellent text and photos! I wonder what they were quarreling about? Awesome action shot.
Fantastic.... I find it so hard to get ants! They just move and move and move! Awesome... I'm gonna have to get lessons from you on Ant shooting! =)
