I've got really lucky! After so many bad shots with ants, this little guy stopped and posed in front of me!

I'm not an arthropod enthusiast, Gion-Andri, but this is beautifully rendered, especially the colours, and the crispness of the ant.
I was lucky with that one. It stopped at the right moment fo 2-3s. So I got time to focus. I like ants, but the are so hard to shoot.
The color is almost natural. There is this huge pile of old, dark bark. I only added a slight purplish touch to it.
Thank you very much for your comment, Chris.
