*I am only commenting, and not voting on this challenge*

Really just an ok shot in my opinion. Too much to look at, which takes away from the ant, which seems secondary and lost amid the chaotic field of grass and flowers. Colors are ok, yellow could be a bit deeper (there seems to be some greenish hue to the outer petals as well), and the lighting is flat and uninteresting. I'd try different times of day for a shot like this, or work on more creative angles.

7 - Made a comment, but seems it didn't 'stick'. Like this and whilst like to see less green, does get lost because of the dominant yellow in my opinion. A more refined crop make this even better, again, my opinion. Like that the ant has a slight purple 'tint' to it.

good, but the ant is out of focus and that intruder is the main subject in your shot...a closer sharper crop would have been better
