  1. Really well done, William! The subject looks pristine and well cleaned. Exposure looks top notch, which is not that easy when its shiny. Posted 3 years ago
  2. Great feedback. I'm trying some pure white backgrounds and reducing hot spots on the insect which is not that easy to do. Appreciate the comment. Posted 3 years ago
  3. William, is this E.gracilicornis or E.gracificornis. I couldn't find the second one in the databases!
