photo of sow bug face

[ECooper]

Hi all,

I know this isn't an aquatic animal...but at least its a crustacean!

I posted this photo on my blog last night--a highly magnified picture of a common sow bug or woodlouse (order Isopoda).—along with a brief explanation of how I did it.

More discussion will follow in the next couple of posts...but this was just so cool I had to share it!

Cheers
EC

Your own photo? if so, very cool.

I always called 'em armadillo bugs...
