I like the behavioral aspect of this picture. However, the ant appears to be unsharp. The best focus in the picture appears to be on some of the plants in front of the ant. I know how difficult it is to focus at these magnifications. I tried photographing spadefoot toad eggs and newly emerged tadpoles at around 6x this summer and had to throw away most of the slides.
