Millipede - More Legs

In response to a request to "show more leg", I staged my preserved millipede in a way to show as much of the arrangement of its legs as possible while doing so in a magnified view. I've also attached a session of it placed on a dried leaf to show it in a more natural habitat comparable to where I found it.

Very nice. I like the back-lit effect.

Mark, that's a technique that I am experimenting with. I use two diffused LED's, one on the left and one on the right. Then I take the fiber optic lamp heads and place one above and slightly backward shining at the lower one and one below slightly upward shining toward the upper one. I dim those to a intensity that does not produce any glare.

Thanks, Brenda. I'm trying different techniques and settings while waiting for Mother Nature to start popping here.
