[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Antlion according to Insects of Southern Africa, if i am correct. This little guy sat on a Light Shade in the lounge and after about 20 minutes and 15 shots and sweat pouring down my face i was lucky to get this shot. I have record shots of him as well, he silver all over and have beautifull veined wings, looking like a roman soldier in full armour.

Hello Quinten,
excellent close-up portrait. Sharpness is admirable: legs and face, but in particular the antennae are nicely presented.
Peter

Great macro of this Antlion Quinten.
Good POV (point of view) and composition.
It is very clear too with good light levels and colour.
All around, a very good job.
Cheers,Steve

Hello Quinten,
The sweat must have been worth it, for this is a fine shot of the front parts of this antlion.
TFS, regards, Ivan
