The colour of this picture is amazes me. The twisted leaf makes me wonder if the ant has actually traced the path like that. I am also wondering if there could have been an angle where the origin of the twisted leaf could be a part of the image. Totally loved this composition. A strange feel of the ant's situation here. Will it turn back???
Eager to know your thoughts on this Raviprakashji.

Hi Ravi,
The element of flight in the picture is really interesting. The leaf seems to fly along the diagonal. looks like the curls do the magic here. And like Hrishikesh said the tones are also interesting.
Thanks for sharing

Thanks Hrishikesh & Nirlep..

Antwalk is as controlled as Catwalk! These ants were pretty active and moving around in one particular area.. It amazed me how well they changed directions, moved till dead-end and turned back, moved upside-down without falling!

This curled grass was very interesting.. i waited for the ants to move on the grass.. The curled shape was not making any difference to the movement. I spent sometime and was able to get 3-4 satisfactory pics.

Ant and Grass was not standing out in color version, hence converted it to B & W. And regarding the tones, the area was dried up including the grass blade.. Hence added brownish tinge.

@Hrishikesh-Regarding another angle, Origin of the curly grass could not be covered as the area had too many elements which could have distracted..

I assumed this to be a "APFC" bird in flight and thought to get a better look and was surpurised to see this. Its beautiful, really gets me into thinking. TFS
