You got covered in ants, I regularly get covered in duck poo. Not a very glamourous job being a photographer at times but Laura, getting on top of that ant hill was well worth the effort to get this amazing shot. I feel like I'm a worm looking at those mountains Laura so all in all a job well done and well and truly worth the effort. #7638529

Thank you everyone! I've really -REALLY- enjoyed all of your additions to this thread!

BIG SMILES HERE!!!

It was VERY lucky FOR ME that they were not FIRE ANTS. They were just little tiny ones. :) I shook most of them right off. The rest I wont tell you about! HA! It was worth it anyway but I did feel like I had ants on me the rest of the day when there really weren't!!!

Thank you again all. Glad you like this image. :)
