18 is good -- but only as 3 per day for 6 days.

You should see an "Edit" button on each of your own posts.

Please pick whichever three images you like, then edit the post that started this topic, to show just those three. (Hint -- if you don't, we will, and I'm sure you're much better at picking images than we are. :wink: )

Thanks much!

The lower ant looks like he is doing some housecleaning. He is getting rid of a dead aphid :wink:. The one aphid, center right edge, looks like he has another creature on him!

They milk the Aphids. Charles Chein on the old forum had excellent shots of that. Amazing to see.

Fine shot here and yep :wink: 18 or 8 shots is not easy on dial ups. So whose on dial up. Plenty on laptops on the road and a few I know from home even in the US :D :wink:

Anyway, lets not sweat it and get on with fine shots. this certainly is one :D

Worry about the image that comes out of the box, rather than the box itself.
