Wing of a moth - 40x - a photo on Flickriver

            Just testing out the new rig with my trusty objectives and some cropping to see the detail.

10x Nikon M PLAN cropped to 40x in photoshop :)

Not bad, vibrations seem to be reduced by a larger scale here compared to older attempts. 

Time to buy a 40x, when the money comes in.. !

Moths Wing - 40x

Let's get even closer !

Next time you pick up a moth, take a closer look. 
To appreciate something fully, you must first look as closely as you can at it.
On the wing of a moth lies thousands of tiny scales, all of different colours, sizes, shades, shapes.
These tiny, perfectly designed structures aid in the flight of a moth helping to gain lift and for steering.
