[Notas - Normas] Nota do Artista
The anatomy of a queen ant is very similar to other ants of that particular species, however, they noticeably are larger than the rest of the ants in the colony. As with other ants, queens have a hard outer covering called the exoskeleton, and their bodies are divided into three main sections: the head, thorax, and abdomen. They have a pair of jointed antennae that can be extended forward when investigating an object. Unlike other ants, however, young queens have a pair of wings. These are only used for the nuptial flight, and are later detached either by the queen herself or chewed off by her worker ants.

Hi, Lurdes. Nice macro shot of the ants and a nice note. I must admit this is the first time I have seen it this close. Good work. shaukat

Hi Lurdes,
Flawless close-up, you've focused in on the larger ant perfectly. Good composition too, allowing it room to move into the frame to the left. The shallow DOF looks like it worked well, impressive capture.

TFS,
Scott.

Ola Mario! Nice macro, perfect capture and exposure, ideal sharpness. Good natural light an colours. Original frame. Saude!

Hello Lurdes,

Very good macro shot.
Excellent focus on the bigger ant (the queen).
Also, the DOF is excellent.

Very informative note :)

Best regards,
Tatjana

bravo pour la macros.

Bonjour Lurdes.
Une bébête monstrueuse qui semble venir d’un autre monde.
L’observation en est parfaite grâce à une excellente netteté.
Les couleurs sont aussi parfaites, bravo.
Bonne journée.
