Very difficult this one! I learnt a few things here. Spot metering will get it wrong most of the time and other ways of metering are even more useless. So to get detail on these black bodies is very difficult. The movement is incredibel. To get 50 photos in focus, you need to take over 1,000 photos. To freeze the movement of ants you need SS of at least 1/300 sec. Depth of field will be a fraction of a millimeter. I would have liked another day to try and reflect some more light on the scene and try something with amanual focus set-up, but I ran out of time. So here we go - I'll wait to see what the clever people say.
Just did some basic editing. Picture style to portrait, Whit balance to shade, increased brightnes, decreased contrast, sharpened, cropped. Edited highlights on the body.
