As always, superb images. If you haven't already done so, you should write a book on your techniques. I for one would buy it.
Clemente21, Thanks ever so much and I am humbled by your reply.

Not only fabulous image, but the creature itself is amazing. I can see why ants can climb anywhere, those little hooks on their feet.

Thanks, Flying Three. Ants are among the earliest species on earth with fossils and entrapment in amber some indicating that they were here some 140 to 160 million years ago. Some queen ants have a 90 or so year lifespan and there are some 12,500 different known species.

This is the black flying ant that I found while sweeping the floor which I staged for a focus stacking session. I am not sure of the exact species, however, it has similar features to the black carpenter ants that I see so often here.
WoW, Gary! Phenomenal image!
