Such a terrific image. So good, I have to ask... is the concept original? Yes or no, very well done.

And by the way, I think the penny adds visual interest to the photo.

Clever idea and nicely done. I don't think the penny was essential though, as it distracts the eye from the "A" and the ants. 8

VERY cool idea. Don't think you needed the penny.
05/14/2010 10:10:56 PM
Amusing!!

terrific concept. not sure scale is necessary.
05/14/2010 04:28:43 AM
clever! I see you've got all your ants in a row.
05/12/2010 11:48:27 PM
Ants and Abe??? Interesting set up.
05/12/2010 01:31:37 PM
Great concept, but you don't need the coin !
05/11/2010 12:10:49 PM
Those are INCREDIBLY small ants!!! And I love how they've all lined up so politely. The question is, what did you do with them after the last shot you took :-) I hope this finishes on the front page.

Great shot, and while the penny does give scale, I think it detracts more than it adds. Even if the ants were harder to guage the size of, it doesn't detract from the image as much as the penny does.

That said, clever idea, well executed, should do well

I think this was a clever idea but maybe to improve on it I would have spelt out the whole word 'ant' and not had the coin as I think this takes away from an otherwise nice shot.

Clever idea and nicely executed.
05/10/2010 04:17:07 AM

One of them just wants to take the money and run. ;-)

Ha very clever.
05/10/2010 12:44:30 AM
wiw! excellent idea.. im gonna go try this now! lol

i dont get why the penny is there though... just to show size?
05/10/2010 12:15:05 AM
good idea...I am not sure what the coin is doing there though 7

how clever and imaginative .. i'd love to know your secret for training ants tho .. i keep looking at this .. it really is amazing .. i wonder .. is it a sweet thing like honey or a glue that makes them line up so excellently .. !!!..:) .. i'm not voting yet .. :)
