Thanks, can you just make it brighter? Head is way too dark. We need to be able to see the base of the scapes to the clypeus.
Put the queen on a DARK background (you have it on white). The camera right now is trying to expose to the darkest and brightest background, if you have the background as dark as the queen it should expose better.
It does look like Formica, just want to be sure because the coloration is interesting.
Can you get a frontal shot of the head?
These are the best I could get with my phone.
I lightened it up and it is Formica. I know there are what looks to me like F. subpolita all around that area, but would the queens look like this??
