I caught this ant and its reflection on a sticky stretch of splattered Sprite. I like the reflection of the ant in the sticky beverage and the design it created on the wooden table.

    Cool shot Michal. I like bug shots, but reflective bug shots are a bonusthumb.gif.

    Thanks for the bug,

    I like the shot but I think the ant is slightly in front of your focus. I always do that with such small DOF. Good job.

    Wow. You made two things I hate (ants and sticky soda spills) beautiful! Nice job.

    Actually, I don't hate them. It's like the line in the movie "Barfly":

    "I don't hate Frank, I just feel better when he's not around."

    Great catch- think it would be better if you cropped it slightly to take the ant off centre.

    Thanks to all of you for your comments. Yes--a double jeopardy shot--ants and sticky soda.


    Glad you liked.
