An excellent image with perfect DOF and fine detail exactly where needed. Excellent highlights define the ants shape.
If I may: play with the cropping a bit. Crop just barely to the left of the white stalk the ant is on. That would place the ant off-center, creating mostly negative space to the right. giving him the center of our attention.
Or, crop barely right of the ant leaving negative space to his left.
Either one, I think would add greater impact to an already strong photograph.

Thank you for your comments and critique. I would agree that this image could be better cropped. I was fairly new to photography at the time, as now I would crop it differently (negative space to the left).
