Scary! Nikon Small World Photography Competition

[ Edited ]

Just saw this on the news.  Geez the photos and videos are so interesting to see!  All are images captured through a microscope.  Go to nikonsmallworld dot com.

 

WARNING!  This pic below freaked me out!  An ant's face close up.  Looks like something from a Sci-fi movie!  😬😱😳  

 

Scroll down if you care to look!  😬

WOW! If we could see that with the naked eye, we'd never go outside.

Uh, this photo serves to excuse me if I happen to step on one on the sidewalk.
In the spring I sometimes get a line of ants crossing my kitchen counter. What made them appear?!?!?

Picturing those monster faces will help me sweep them into a sponge and drown them in the sink a lot faster.  Kind of harmless insects, but scary when magnified!

I'm going to convince myself that this is a joke.  Smiley Sad  Yes, I googled it and I know it's true but wow, this just can't be real.  Scary!!!

@gizmogal   I agree! I'll never feel guilty again for doing the flusheroo with these critters!  Of course I will continue to say out loud to the creature "Sorry.  Not sorry!".

 

What makes those ants visit your kitchen? I think those ants are looking for YOU!  They are huntin' you down!  😉

Looks devilish to me! That's crazy. I hate ants even more now.
