Dantelion

This started out with me trying to focus the dandelion clock using a droplet of water. I tried all sorts - applying oil to glass, adding sugar to the water, but try as I might I just couldn't get the required wetting conditions for a decently rounded droplet.

Just when I was about to give up, I saw this curious little ant crawling around the seeds. I rewarded it for giving me inspiration with some of the sugar water and I happily spent a good 15 minutes snapping away.

In other news: I worked from home today, feeling a bit run down.
