This is an experiment in marking a photo with an arrow. Useful in inndicating specific setae. It is the lower katepisternal seta on a photo of Lasiomma cf seminitidum Zett. I don't know if the arrow will transmit. Michael Ackland attached the following image:  [118.68Kb] |

 You can confirm that in Overviews section there are some photos with many arrows. Please, take a look on them: http://diptera.in...ad_id=8803 and http://diptera.in...ad_id=9242 and http://diptera.in...ad_id=8790 but please continue to do that so other people can understand what we are talking. |

Michael: Houston, we have an arrow. Your version is OK, but it has ragged edges - I guess it's a smaller bitmap arrow scaled up to required size. Jorge: "other people can understand what we are talking" - good luck with that Kahis |

KAHIS:  Are we normal? "Houston, we have a problem. We are seeing strange things here in space, we are seeing some guys running happily and trying catch a bunch of flies!!! Can you explain this rather strange and disturbing activity?"   (*with a super, super telescope) Edited by jorgemotalmeida on 26-02-2008 11:46 |

I just looked up your links, Jorge. Great stuff! Tell us how you get these enlarged photos please. My experiment was to see if I could add an arrow to your photo (Should have mentioned this), by copying to another programme on my computer which has this facility; then send it to the forum. One point: the term first flagellomere has been deemed incorrect by Stuckenberg (South Africa) and should be now called postpedicel |

Thanks. At first I must say that the photos in Overviews are not mine, except the wing venation for Trichocera. The photos I took like this Lasioma are really mine. In my case I use a canon 30D with Sigma 105 mm lens and Kenko extension tubes. Sometimes I add a 50 mm objective so I can gain more ampliation. Now i use another lens, the mpe. |
