Nice image.

I'm not sure where to look. I see two scars that look like normal places where the female sheds her wings after mating.

thank you Rik,

i was probably misinterpreting this wounds. To me it looks like two little cuts on here back and a third elder one in between. Will try to get a crop from them in the original tomorrow to see a little more.
Her its sunday morning one a clock, and time for bed.

Very well done. Excellent stacking job especially considering all the overlapping "parts".

@Hi Charles,

yes this was a little surprise after stacking. One finds a few artefacts and i think one should do some experimenting in lighting to find out, how to minimize them. I shure was glad to read your comment ! Thank you for stopping by.

Greetings from Bavaria

Thanks, Lothar. Yes, that looks to me like a normal thorax where the wings have been shed.
