[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Oh when he is angry he is real angry. He doesn't know where to stop... continues biting even after losing his head.
Tech - many macro shots to catch the fidgety gentleman. Selected the one with wine coloured limbs. Layered - used technique suggested by Diana (rain celebratioin). Kept the subject sharp and used bleach eraser to soften the surroudnings. Filled one layer with sepia to make the big ant stand out. Framed and here it is.

Nice macro Mukesh with very clear contrast. The fidgety gentleman looks quite dandy and bussy...

Thank you for you very descriptive note.
