These guys are crazy fast, my technique to compose and focus was basicly point the lens (Milo_Andersons beautiful lens) at one spot, try to keep a reasonable focus by moving the camera back and forth and wait for the fire-ants to be standing in the right spot to get a portrait taken

Love the title. It fits. If anything is near impossible to capture, it would have to be a fire ant. But, you did it. Great capture. The one ant is really in good focus. Excellent work.

This is really great!! I get the sense of the movement and business of the ants. Overall colors blend really well together too.. and it's so crisp. Kinda creepy to look at which also adds to the 'draw' of this picture. :-)

My God, I'm impressed. That takes some nerves of steel. 10/10 in the booth.

Hi Carl. great image you shot here. I learn so much from watching the work of my fellow photographers. The clarity of the one subject is really crisp, and the interaction of the three creates a dynamic that is really what makes still photography work. Congratulations on a fabulous idea and shot, and congratulations on your time as Featured Artist.

Wow! Beautiful macro work. Crystal clear! Excellent work. Actually makes the ants look interesting and not creepy.
