Zut alors! This blog seems to have developed a following of Frenchmen. The shame of it is, I studied French for 5 years in High School and don't remember a word of it.
The French ant-enthusiast forum Acideformik looks like a fine place to hang out on the intra-webs. Most online myrmecology forums are populated by 12 year-olds relating their experiences fighting red and black ants, or trying to trade in their allowance to import a colony of exotic bulldog ants (to kick the butts of both red and black ants, I gather). However, the French are over there having book discussions and contemplating the finer points of petiolar morphology. I'm jealous.

Merci! I'm currently working on a couple of posts about photo technique that will be posted in the the next week or so, I think.
Great news!

I'm very pleased to see that an excellent photographer and macro-world specialist has a good opinion of the forum wich one I am member.
As Hugo and k2r said, we look forward your macrophoto tips ! Even if I unfortunatly, I will probably never be able to make such fabulous insect portraits...
Most importantly, please don't stop photographing ! It is always a high pleasure for me to discover your artwork.
