Macro Marchers

There are workers that seem to have endless jobs. These tiny little Macro Marchers work night and day and travel miles in efforts to be providers. These Macro Marchers are none other than ants!

One day while out an about I took some time to study these wonders and captured a few entering and exiting their homes in the earthen soils all over the yard. When you get a chance, take some time and visit your own Ant Condo in your own front yard! I'm sure they won't mind getting their pictures taken either.

This one shot I applied a 20 pixel feather around it. This basically makes the cloud or fade effect on the image. Using a crop tool, you select the image and the pixels are slowly faded out from center to the edge. Also, for some effects, I applied a Sandstone filter, almost like the canvas one I did previously, to make it appear to have texture.

Where ever you are, take pictures of everything. Don't always look on what's eye-level. Look in the air and on the ground. There is so much out there.... start shooting and enjoy.
