You got it rite on the scale thing. BFs are insects known as Lepidoptera...from the Greek words lepis(a scale) and pteron(wing).
A scale wing.

Very nice series.. Seems to have been sharpened in PS.

Liked all except the elephant eye shot.
Personally would have liked to see more to the right and less of the left, as on the right side of the shot, i am beginning to see the wrinkles of the eyes etc but got cut off..

Thanks! See what you mean. my intention was to place the eye at the focal 1/3 point, and as the eye was looking towards the left, I put more space on the left, and to show the skin texture......but I do see your point.Thanks again!
