The fantasy world of ants: photographs by Andrey Pavlov

[Jazzy]

The photographs in this picture gallery may look like they been Photoshopped or assembled with dead insects, but the ants in these images are very much alive. Russian photographer Andrey Pavlov spends hours setting up fairytale scenes. He studied ants, and saw that they all follow a very specific path when they’re working. So he put his props on their trail, and photographed the insects interacting with his miniature 'stage sets'.

Amazing.



But of course somebody will protest his mistreatment of the ants- exploiting them for fun and profit without making a donation to the Insect Rescue Association or something.

He must've sat there for ages waiting for those ants to get into the right pose

Probably the same people who'd pay for someone to remove an anthill in their backyard.
