Comment: The unusual shot taken at home shows a lonely ant is carrying a feather.The shot is so clear that her jaws holding the feather are clearly seen.I always like to shoot such other than ordinary images even at home which are not seen by others.Here the very tiny ant is trying to carry a feather which looks not easy for her.I also found much pleasure seeing her activity when I was shooting.Simple but the image showing the keen eye of the photographer seeing beyond the ordinary.I used flash to freeze the action of the ant and also it was in low light.I also increased ISO to get faster shutter speed in P mode.
