Thanks for the informative narrative. Nice close up on your little ants and their herd of aphids. Good focus, dof and well framed. I think I would increase the saturation just a tad.

Way too many bugs in one place for me! LOL Great capture, I appreciate why it is so special. Lovely line along the diagonal for your composition and great blurred background. Excellent shot!

Neat pic of these busy little guys. Clarity is good and well defined. The close up allows for us to see the ants real colors and the differant dimensions of them.

Great find. This kind of image is usually only in the insect wars documentary's I watch on TV. I'm always fascinated by insects. Hard to imaging red ants which sting like anything and they care for these other insects. Very dramatic. Colors are great and the DOF in background lets you view without obstructions. Great shot.

Wonderful macro of these ants and detail of them is stunning. Good angle of the branch they are on and love the way you have shown the background with a slight blur. Good ligtning and well framed.
