A good capture of these normally fast moving creatures. If it were mine I think I would crop the left by about a 1/3rd to concentrate on the interaction between the ants.

A fine action and behavior image. I like the diagonal line of the ants and their position.

Fascinating creatures and a fine behaviour capture with these two in a strong diagonal though the frame!

Looks like a kiss! :). Pretty amazing close view of these two. I wonder what they were really doing. Excellent shot.
