The Hunt

I found today some ants, fighting their prey.

Nice work! I wish the background wasn't so close in color to the subjects though. Hard for you to control that though. Maybe if you could have caught them closer to the edge or found a better angle. The few spots I see ants hanging over the edge they stand out much more.

Thank you.I was sitting on the old bench and on the wood at the back you lean against (sorry I don't know the word in English) they were fighting. The three pictures I'm showing were at the end of the fight. Two, three seconds later they were gone.

I also had to edit the pictures more than I like, to make the prey stand out. It had the same bright color as the wood. ;)

I wish I had more contrast, but I'm really happy with the pictures.

Your English is great! If there's a better word than bench back, I cant think of it. Great job on the pics you got. Ants are fast and have very little color variation. I't really hard to get a really clear shot of them. You definitely captured the action.

Thank you Troy. Here is one with more action. The last picture from that series, I consider good.

Best pic of this group in my opinion!
