I got myself a camera eyepiece gadget for my dissection scope (disclaimer: no newts were dissected in the making of these pictures) and took these pics of some of my apuanus larvae (and one pyrrh egg).

The gadget is fun, but the resolution if pretty lousy; I'm shopping around for a better (and probably more expensive) one...

magnifications are 10 X and 30 X
