July 2015 - Berlin

Hello friends, I am hoping that someone can help shed some light on the contents of a photo of mine. The photo was made with a compact camera instead of a macro because the weather was very cloudy and windy and i didn't want to change the settings on the macro camera.

Anyway, i noticed a mud puddle with tiny reddish dots moving around very quickly. In between the reddish dots are some small dark insects with antennae. Anyone able to suggest an id for the moving red dots? could they be mosquito larvae? I did not collect anything.

Thank you for your time,
John
