Kiss me good night... Doing flower macros, suddenly this ant came into focus. So I put the flowers aside and took some macros of the ant. Now, aren&#039;t these nice mandibles? <br /> As there are so many kinds of ants, I have no idea which precise specie this is - maybe you can find out!?<br /> Arthropoda,Formicidae,Geotagged,Germany,Macro,ant,insect Click/tap to enlarge

    Gernot, a great macro shot! Just displaying a part of the ant makes it even more captivating. I like the focus. Posted 13 years ago
