'Full of ant' is how Ingo described himself after lying next to the ants' nest for just a few minutes. Ingo watched as the red wood ants carved an already dead beetle into pieces small enough to fit through the entrance to their nest.(Image:Wildlife Photographer of the Year)
John had been tracking this family group for almost a week, wearing snowshoes and carrying light camera gear to make his way through snowy forests. When fresh tracks led him to the group, he kept his distance to make sure he didn't disturb them.(Image:Wildlife Photographer of the Year)
