I can't seem to get rid of the ants on my front porch, so I figure I might as well use them to my advantage. Anyone want some free big ants? Shipping is free too.

Ewww bugs. These are looking kind of scary big. Not totally sure BUT I think that ants have problems with cinnamon so maybe you can sprinkle some of that and see what happens? Good luck!

Oh, excellent macro btw.

Great macro. Generally speaking I'm not too bothered about ants ever since I sat in the bath watching some of them revive another ant who had almost drowned. It was one of the most remarkable things I've ever experienced.

Hundreds of ants for one lone mouse? Sounds like a great deal. I'll start getting your shipment ready. Let me know when you are ready to ship the mouse.
If we're really lucky, the US Post office will lose both parcels. :P

These rope shots are all great. The sharpness is outstanding and your mixing it up quite well. Nice job.

actually, I'm not sure how big the ant is (although the features make me think its much bigger than a common black ant). i love the image. its very sharp, but for all i know this could be a macro shot. how big is the ant? again nice shot, focus is great and subjects are well defined.

Poisons would hurt the pugs as they tend to eat anything they think might resemble food.
