Different ant genera from Ecuador, Eciton, Odontomachus, Paraponera etc, all dead specimens, I used a Canon 5D II, MPE 65mm at 5X and a 430 Ex Zerene stacker

Excellent portraits. Nice colors and very good detail. Number 3 is my favorite.

Is there a story behind the last one?

Thank you for your comments , I took this picture because I wanted to show the diversity of size in ants, the biggest one , is a bullet ant , and the small one is an argentina ant

All nicely done! I really do enjoy the size "comparison" of the last image.

I like them all, but the last image is definitely worth a thousand words!

If I could swear here I would. Those are cracking. If I would have to choose one as my favourite it would be all four. HEY MODS...December front page.
