An Ant's Eye View

Decided to combine the April challenge with my Photo A Day as I was feeling
short of inspiration as well as being short of time.
This is an ant's eye view of Fudge and his new rugby ball. This time it's
a full sized one and he really loved playing with it. In fact, he point blank
refused to go for a walk, put on the brakes and made me turn back
for another game of 'fetch'.

Great idéa, well done !!!

That new toy really is receptive to detail, both in terms of sharpness and colour. Fudge, on the other hand, is clearly receptive to catching and chewing.

You must have been laying on the ground. Definitely an ant's eye view of the pretty dog and his new ball. Super photo.
Stephanie01-Apr-2011 21:24
If I were an ant, I'd turn and run the other way for fear of being pounced on by Fudge. Terrific capture Mairead! V
