Travel Tuesday || Sunday Traveler || Repost || PERUVIAN ANTS

When I first started my blog, I didn't have many followers.  Now that I have a few more, I'm going to repost some of my very earliest posts, especially related to travel.  Hope you enjoy!

These are the coolest ants, ever.  It's such a funny sight to walk upon a row of walking leaves!  We took great care not to step on any of them!  I wish I had a better camera so I could have gotten closer shots!  

(By the way, these are leaf-cutter ants.  They are tiny ants that cut leaves and carry them back to their nest.  They pile them up to make a compost in which to grow fungi, which they eat.  You can read about it here.)

This picture was taken in a village called San Jose, right outside of Pucallpa, Peru.

Macro Photography

Peter has a macro lens for his Lumix... I was experimenting at the Japanese Friendship Garden (video and photo shoot).

I'm very happy with these photos and I'm looking forward to using the macro lens more!

Which is your favorite?
