Mark,

This image is 60% of the full image, cropped to eliminate unnecessary 
intrusions.  I make no claim of presenting black framed images from 
filed-out negative carriers.  When trying to get insect photos, I catch them 
in their world, not mounted on a pin.  Some cropping is always necessary 
because they never pose when I say "cheese".
