Good catch...power in numbers. #1 and #3

interesting!

I love these shots. and also how we can learn from tiny critters like them. Unity is power. Anyway, they are very strong relatively. imagine they are our size and can leave up another person that easily.....

Cheers,
tltan

Thx for the comments guys! Glad u find it interesting, I was too. I was walking along the pasir ris mangrove boardwalk when i chanced upon this. The chain broke up when I first flashed at them and some stared at me with 2 hands up

And I waited a while for them to rebuild the chain.

just a suggestion, maybe some back light would make the ants stand out from the bg more

Thks for viewing guys, hope u don't mind the dark BG as I've to use the highest sync speed at F/22 to get DOF and motion freeze.

Thks Ortega for ur advice, I'm still struggling at how to use my mounted flash properly, maybe when the time is right, I'll try getting a slave flash.
