Forum Entomologi Italiani

today have done some photos to a specimen of Anthaxia (Anthaxia) salicis (Fabricius, 1776) from Romania (this is one of the commonest buprestids from Romania ) with the last modification of my so fantastically setup .

here is the result, and I'm declaring myself almost satisfied.

specimens data are: north east of Romania (Moldavia) - 47.749817/26.890076 - in 7.may.2010.

Very good preparation and very good photo. I can just observe that there is too many light, and the hair on the head disapper, merging with the white background. In these cases I prefer a darker image.

Grazie Maurizio, yes I know white hairs on white background (white on white) but for now this is the only BG available.
