NO.. this is a very dirty sensor. Smile


this is almost a picture of art! Well done, Nikita!

Is this really how they fly, with their heads down and hind legs horizontal? Or should the picture be rotated 90 degrees?
#3 | Nikita Vikhrev on 31 October 2012 21:40:33
I checked other images. The answer is "no", it seems that the body orientation of Microsania differs from image to image.

I can no longer send private messages (and maybe not receive?), even though my inbox and outbox are not yet full. I write, click "send" and they disappear and never show up in the outbox.
