The Fly!
Uploaded: March 24, 2010
Photographed with a scanning electron microscope in 1980 at the University of South Carolina. During my grad school days in biology, I had the good fortune of access to an electron microscope and a kindly professor who would let me play with the equipment. I thought the image title captured the 1950's scifi feel of this fearsome beast. Image scanned from a 4x5in negative and processed with levels, unsharp mask and the background darkened with selective levels and gaussian blur in Photoshop CS.

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.
Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
