I like the idea for this, however the photo appears a little soft, which hurts the overall submission. I am also not sure about the choice of colour for the words, as it gives this a very, very pink feel to the entire poster as well. The title and phrase are a great match for the photo.....

Great idea. Perhaps the ant is a little soft?

nice message but I'd like if the focus was sharper on the ant.

The Ant could have been more in focus, like your text though.
