Howdy, I've been turned onto ant keeping since subscribing to AntsCanada on YouTube. Last year I had no luck finding queens, and yet this year... Holey moley! I've got at least 10 queens that I believe are red fire ants (solenopsis Invicta?) And maybe one or two unidentified species to me. To put it in perspective I was in my bathroom and browsing the web, and had what I'm guessing *might* be a minimus minimorium queen crawl up my leg! Looked down and spotted two more on the tile crawling around! I even released one of the infertile *fire ant* queens I had caught about two months ago, and no joke, found two more about five minutes later! Currently I'd like some advice on ways to increase the capability of my camera phone. I know about Pro mode, natural sunlight and having a white background for contrast, and any tips to increase the output/clarity would be appreciated. I'm looking to borrow a quality digital camera for some good shots.
Thank you for your time,
Tzakeran
