Amazing....these ants seem so interested in you...and they are freaky looking, but so cool that we can see them so close.

Beautiful work, but ant closeups make me itchy. These also make me think of the "misunderstood lyrics" item: "The ants are our friends. They're blowing in the wind. The ants they are blowing in the wind."

Very Nice composition, it's seems "Other Worldly" which I guess it is when we bring the small world up close like this. I love the creamy background. These are called weaver ants I believe.
Thanks for sharing this
Michael.

Brilliant photo, well captured.

And as for your comment Alphasco, you can come over and wipe the drink I just splattered over my keyboard from laughing.

Cheers,

Gerard
