Hi Gerald... I just came back to this one and it looks great. Glad you took my remarks in a friendly way. Beautiful shot, great title.

What a nice shot! One of my preferred.

@Don: Thanks for the hint. Even though on my monitor some of the dark areas appeared really black, a look at the histogram revealed that you are right. A calibrated monitor would be great... Uploaded an improved version.
@Nugar: Maybe "Starship Troopers"? I do not know this movie but some research after reading your comment made me find some images on iMDb which are showing insects that look similar to my bugs.

Beautiful photo, Gerald. Great shot, wonderful title. It does suffer from "fog", however, and doesn't have a true black anywhere in the photo, which it obviously should. Try setting a black point just above the antenna in the upper-right corner. Or for real drama, set it on the small black indentation between the lead animal's eye and left front leg.

No no, more than the clones it reminds me of.. &%$#@ I forgot the title of that movie where the humans battle giant insects... The bugs also seemed based on hemyptera.

Perfect title, I like the way clone in rear is advancing.
