Ants

To look closely at the world through a macro lens brings a whole new dimension to photography. You will see things that you hadn't noticed before. Two nights ago, I photographed an ant as it searched for prey in a dandelion plant.

The first photo shows the original image. The second two images have been cropped from originals and the extreme close views add more drama to each scene. If you look closely near the right side of the image in the second photo you can see a tiny insect hiding behind one of the petals. I didn't see that until I downloaded the photos.

I didn't get to an iceberg yesterday. Maybe today.
