The cuvette rests on black plasticene and a small sphecid wasp (Tachysphex?) is pinned next to it. The point here is to contrast the clarity of the pinned specimen with the specimens that have to go through the optically more distorting walls of the quartz glass and hand sanitizer....specimens come out clearly better than the plastic cuvette, but not nearly as well as the pinned specimen., but on the other hand there is all sort of opportunity to place and manipulate specimens in the hand sanitizer Experimental Photograph: A collection of tiny 1-2mm inverts (spiderlings, leafhoppers, immature plant bugs and small beetles) mixed into hand sanitizer and placed in a fused quartz cuvette (10mm on a side) and photographed at 1:1 no attempt was made to organize the specimens, but that can easily be done with a thin wire or bent pin.
