I like the ants world but I don't have many shots of it.
This was taken last month during a walk.

f10 1/250

Thanks for viewing.
C&C are very welcome.

Monica, this shot is fantastic. So sharp and I find the composition very exciting.

An outstanding image all around, Monica. Colors are rich up to the limit of belief, And that you have captured an insect in such a splendid posture is testiment to you patience. Wish Rich was here to enjoy this one.

Wonderful shot, Monica. The ant's world appears colorful but very alien. Unusual pose for the ant too. This almost looks like some kind of science fiction image. Lovely interplay of shadows and shapes.

Monica:
Ants are very interesting but difficult to photography as they seem to be on the move all the time. Also they seems to defy gravity. Love the acrobatic pose you have captured here.

Love the colorful frame, very easy on the eye Monica..I would go as far as to say this is the most pleasing/attractive "ant" macro I've seen. Cool the way you got em', moving from the stamen to the small twig too.
Very well done

Love the pose of this guy, Monica! You got great details on the ant and flower. I find the BG slightly distracting; wish it could be more blurry but probably didn't have much choice to get the ant clear. Perhaps a slight desaturation of the BG pink flower would help and a slight crop from the bottom? Just my humble opinion.
