I had no idea ants were so shiny...

While photographing this tiny flower, an ant popped into view. I had no idea they were so shiny....

...from the soft, velvety plushness of the Red Velvet Mite in the previous post, to the sleek, shiny, smooth-as-glass finish on this ant, macro photography lets you see things you had no idea were there.

...don't worry, even though I'm loving the hidden beauty I can find with the macro lens, I'm not going to go all bug on you...

...but for crying out loud, that little face is cute.
