cool bugs. I'd get a laserpointer though and perhaps edit a few shots (like one with the flies and a stationary camera, you tell something and then a shot where perhaps you hold the camera and point with the laser. A continuous shot tends to get messy, real fast, unless it is fixed in position (and then still it's not advisable). Seeing your hand go from left to right didn't do much for me. The lighting has similar issues - especially with the hand and the huge shadow it casts. Someone asked for labels, this is possible too. For now collecting and preserving bugs is going excellent, which is the most important I suppose. Best of luck!
Many of my specimens are labeled. The ones that aren't are due to the fact that my printer isn't compatible with my label template but all their locality data is saved. If y'all want shots on specific insects, lemme know, and I can make short videos of just those groups! Thanks for the feedback! I learn a lot from y'all!
I totally understand your question! To you, they may be hideous, or grotesque, and while it may sound crazy, they are even more creepy up close. To me however, what intrigues me the most is not their beauty, but their diversity. I still admire and love the stunning and extravagant Arthropods, but when it comes to collecting, I find groups like diptera, and hymenoptera to be very interesting. Many flies and wasps actually happen to be pretty! I suggest you look into them deeper, friend!
Cool
Thanks!
Call her Georgia 😸
A perfect name!
This is an awesome collection you should definitely study entomology if your not already, where do you like to collect?
I'm from Texas, so that's where my specimens are based. I definitely think I'm gonna try to study Entomology professionally
Nice! But labels PLEASE. 🙂
I know! The data on my collection is saved! Don't worry!
