Sorry, forgot to add the Rheinberg. Here it is:

I'm not real crazy about having to have the aperture on the condenser wide open to shoot Rheinberg illumination. I'll keep working on it.

Ahh... my nemesis! (if there is just one of them in the room it'll bite me!).

Fantastic photos, I particularly like the darkfield one.

Cheers

We have three cats and a few years ago we had quite an infestation. I was constantly looking for the little beggars on our bedclothes. They seemed to favor the thin skin on the ankles of the humans.
