Got home today and found a bunch of ants in the sink lined up like this - I guess they were thirsty. Rather than turn on the water, as was my first impulse, I grabbed my camera and took some shots.
Then, I turned on the water.

This is the best idea I have seen! It is very interesting how they all lined up around there. Is kind of funny too. Not the greatest of focus, could be tighter, but I am giving it a 9 for the best idea.
Wow!
Is there a ring of glue or sugar or is it just some weird natural boundary that most ants won't cross? It's like they've screeched to a halt and the scout ant is shouting back to them - don't come any further - this place is HOT!
Or mayb'e I've just had too much caffeine today?!
I like the simplicity in both colour and composition.
This is soooo cut, clever and just a hoot. They look so human the way they are all lined up, or running to jocky for a spot at the bar. Just a cool shot. Great title.
