Carl,

Very nice. Nice buggy, translucent appearing body, and the Plover matches the color well.

Thanks for the kudos.

Roadkill, Not part of the photography class homework. I don't have the equipment to take the macro shots on the DSLR yet. But with the sun out, I got outside and played with the flies and different backgrounds. It was nice to chat on the phone yesterday.

Here is another of the series. Different background, and I used the dark hare's ear to dub the gold body instead of the light hare's mask.
