The idea behind the Posthumous Ribbon is to encourage you to break the rules, to find new and different ways to express yourself. To free your mind to think clearly toward the solution that is certain to come, to laugh at world and at life, not doing what others are expecting you to do, but just following and listening to what's in your heart. DPC it’s a wonderful learning place where everyone should be supported on their way to be a photographer. A special attention should be aimed to those working hard with different views and approaches to photography, those not aligned with the mainstream taste and receiving no recognition. It’s our responsibility to support these photographers creating diversity and expressing different visions. Being active at the Posthumous thread it’s the best way to do it. Being active at the Posthumous thread it’s the best way to protect your and the other’s freedom of being different. Thanks for taking the time to enter this challenge. Stay wild.

This is one strong portrait. The glint on it's head gives that Hollywood sense of adventure, just around the corner.

Very bold to enter a bug in this challenge. A good one too (he's even mysteriously looking out of shot, in approved 'posthumous enigmatic ant' fashion). Well done. Thank you.

Good insect macro, but they're a dime a dozen around here. At a minimum, I wish the bug were facing the camera.

The image sends a message of "Me against the world". And also a message of unknown adventures to come. Very well done.

Made me smile. What an intrepid little guy - sun glinting off his head, ready to take on the world!

Not a good choice for this challenge IMO but a nice shot. Kind of makes me wonder if this is how the ant sees his limited world and surroundings. It grows on me as I'm looking at it... not bad after all. 7

Poor thing. He looks so disheartened, with his antennae drooping like that. Like he just realize how far he still has to go. Stunning detail in such a shallow dof. And the colors and lighting are stellar.
