EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Caught" photographer Andre De Kesel takes us into the intricate world of insects. The extreme macro shot showcases a large soldier ant, hailing from the dense forests of DR Congo's Katanga region. With meticulous precision, De Kesel captures the moment when this formidable creature clutches a much smaller species between its mandibles. The composition is nothing short of mesmerizing as it reveals the power dynamics within nature's microcosm. The contrasting sizes and shapes of these two ants create a visual feast for our eyes, highlighting their remarkable diversity even within the same ecosystem. It serves as a reminder that every living being plays an important role in maintaining ecological balance. De Kesel's choice to photograph these specimens against a backdrop reminiscent of miombo forest adds depth to the narrative. We can almost feel ourselves transported to this remote corner of Africa, where life thrives amidst lush greenery and hidden wonders await discovery. "Caught" not only celebrates the beauty found in unexpected places but also invites contemplation on our own place within this vast tapestry of existence. As we gaze upon this extraordinary image, we are reminded that there is still so much left to explore and appreciate in our natural world – if only we take the time to look closely enough.
