Looks like you were trying to focus on the ants? Not sure, but pretty much everything in this shot is out of focus with the exception of the white things jutting out of the flower. At least the flower with the ants on it should be in focus and draw the eye in. At the same time, there is a lot of detail to be mad eout in the background which makes for a cluttered composition. Good luck.

The focus is just a bit off, but this is a pretty image!

Nice capture. I might have liked it better with a bit more blur in the background (wider aperture) and the foreground flower razor sharp.
