This is....I just can't find the right word David..This is marvellous!! He is drinking like my dog does! Great shot,congratulations

[Dave Humphries]

Very good David,

I have to ask - is that a controlled shot - e.g. a miniature studio - or shot in the wild?

Others may find the EXIF useful: Canon 5D Mk.II at 65mm - ok, I think I can guess the lens
f/14, 1/200s and 100 iso.

Well done,

[deetheturk]

David,

Excellent ! I'll be searching for giant ants today

The shiny bodies on these cause such lighting problems but you have captured this on well.

Hi Grahame,

Thanks for commenting,yes as you know the shiny bodies are a nightmare,a lot of it is trial and error,and a lot of patience is required

Try the sugar water it works a treat for attracting them

Cheers David
