Seeing the little things...

I am so happy with my new camera... Took some pictures around and about the flat today and while viewing them saw something amazing. This flower is about life size in the first picture and the image is reduced -75% from the original Jpeg to fit here... then I notice this tiny black speck on the base of the flower...
with some cropping... turns out to be an Ant! This was just cropped out of the original Jpeg image and not enlarged at all... amazing clarity!
I had not even noticed it when taking this picture in Macro mode... Expect more from me crawling around with camera in hand.

"An ant is over six feet tall when measured by its own foot-rule." Slovenian proverb.
