Achievement

I watched this little bug climb, and climb, persistently until he reached the top. Gosh ... I hope he felt good!

"Top o'the world!" What old James Cagney movie was that from?

@Viewfinder: Ah ... 'White Heat'. How appropriate! You can listen to it here. Thanks

Incredible detail. I really like the title you chose for this image.

@e.: Thanks e. I pondered on the title. When I saw how difficult it was for him to negotiate all those soft spikes to reach the top the title was obvious. The analogy was not lost on me.
