Found today in central Europe Camponotus(?) worker(?) id request

Hello!

I live in Hungary. I was out looking for a camponotus queen and found this ant near a river under a piece of bark, in the afternoon. Its about 8mm. My guess is that its just a worker. I can try for a better picture tomorrow under a more natural light.
