I think its great that you are experimenting in this way. I love the front end view of the moth. Am I correct in thinking that the blob at the bottom of the circle is the Pritt stick you used to mount the carcass? It does detract slightly from the overall picture. Perhaps try superglue next time. I expect if you suspended the moth from a fine fish line it would swing in the breeze. The glass Yahoo group I belong to has some people that persist in asking " What would happen if...." instead of trying it for themselves and learning from the result. It does so annoy me. Harking back to your infra red photos, I saw on an air disaster program that they were exploring whether a crash was caused by lack of fuel. They took infra red photos of the area where the crash occurred. The volume of lost petrol could be ascertained by the darker colour of the foliage on the trees which allowed them to decide that the aircraft had sufficient fuel and this could be ruled out as the cause of the crash.
