An Ant Named Sisyphus
Uploaded: February 09, 2010 03:47:19
Unlike the Sisyphus of Greek mythology (who the gods forced to roll a boulder up a hill and watch it roll back down for eternity) this Sisyphus probably touched antennae, or bumped thoraxes, with his buddies once he got back to his group with this large yucca seed. I used Topaz Adjust to give a bit of color to the sands of White Sands. He was in the middle of a dune a long, long way from any ant activity at the moment I saw him.

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
