Ant

I was looking for a different blip so I poured a tiny drop of Lyle's Golden Syrup on the wall. Terrible waste, I know, but I thought I could attract some creatures to photograph. First I got a couple of flies. Then some ants came along and drove the flies off! I need to practise this with perhaps some better glass and maybe a magnifying glass or something. The depth of field was so narrow, I couldn't get all the ants sharp. I thought afterwards, I could have tried to get all the ants in a row so they were all in the same depth of field. I was quite pleased with this one. The golden syrup looks like amber and the ant is standing on it looking very pleased with himself. It must be like us going for a little walk and finding a huge gold nugget!
