ahahahahaha. So these photo's are literally the last seconds of their lives? Aren't you the sensitive one to snap their photo before you snap their neck? ahahahaha.

I like the fly photo best. Lots of detail.

[ving]

They look great Dave.

How do you make them pose for you, do stick a pin threw them....lol

You must be real close for these shots.

[ving]

At that range you'd see the glue David :)

Really well done. Your lighting is great - nicely brought-out detail. :thumbsup:
