The Ants Go Marching One by One


The other day I was sitting on our deck while the kids played in the pool and noticed a lone ant coming toward me. He was on a mission and determined to cross my path.


Ant-8x10


...and here's the before...
Ant-sooc




Ant-sooc Ant-8x10


All I did to this was crop and run PW's Heartland action.
Bada-bing!






PS - That first sentence sounds much better than it really is...the pool is a blow up one, slightly bigger than a bathtub. And those tiny specks of blue are paint that was meant to be only on the house. But I think it adds a little somethin' to the shot. Don't you?

  1. Oh those ants! I can't turn around without seeing one summer, right now. The heat and humidity has forced them in, even onto my school bus {I tell the kids that they'd better stop sneaking the snacks back there, if they don't like the ants}.

  5. I don't point a lens at the ants on our patio but ant dust and I've just discovered the wasp killer spray works wonders on them too.

    Great edit Katie - heartland is an action I rarely use or see used that often. Your blue speckles add to the texture.
