Thats the nest of the weaver ants, sewn together with silk.

This is quite the view, Balan.  It looks like some very challenging photography.  You've got lots of details in the leaves, the silk and the ants.  The ant shadows are a good addition.  I wish the ant near the top and the ant along the bottom were a bit easier to see.  that has me wondering how about a bit of dodging would look.

Balan, very nice details on all these moving ants. I like the ant shadows on the left side and the leaf veins texture.
