Thanks - I guess its the result of trying to show a typical macabre idea in a slightly glamourized way.

Thanks - I guess that was the theme I was going for... trying to make the more unusual tings, stylish/beautiful. A bit of a development on the idea used in 'Days End' ( [link] ).

Killer!

...heh heeeeeee... gosh.
But anyways, it is thoughtful... because not many peeps would bother with something so small and gross, you did and made it into something big and almost beautiful...

Keep it up.

Cheers - collected them out of a lamp (no flies were harmed in the making of this photo). Gotta get myself some extension tubes so I can take proper macro shots of these.

Whoo... gosh, the legths you go for your art.
Your newest challenge: Toilet. Yes, you heard me. I wish to see what you make of that, since it could be quite challenging this one!

Just stuck them on my usual high-tech studio setup of white paper, then held a piece of paper overhead to get the flash over the whole page. They were too small to manual focus so I centred them and then added the white space by increasing the canvas size.

Thanks Took a while to decide on the layout. I went around the lights in the house, finding the unfortunate ones who'd fallen inside... then arranged them into some sort of composition using cocktail sticks.
