    Very good scene, lighting and background. I like it. Too bad the heads miss just a bit of sharpness.

      Joost, thank you, that was the sole reason I posted these pictures, the atmosphere was right on. Yet these silly ants refused to sit still, and I really tried talking them into it;) With my extension rings attached I had an extremely shallow depth of field and they just kept bobbing along. I kept missing my head focus.
      I made some 20some shots, and you guessed none of them were spot on. These were actually the best..

        Yeah, I got that as well. It is almost impossible to take macro pictures of moving insects.
