How did you get it to stay still? Most of these things I've seen are very busy creatures!

Don't you know Matt.K? he used the plastic (rubber) style
Posted: Mon Mar 14, 2005 8:32 pmNot rubber...but an old trick is to place an insect into the freezer for a couple of hours. Set up your gear and then retrieve the happless bugger and take pics as he (hopefully) revives. Works great with spiders and rabid dogs.

I dunno - I'm pushing my luck having the fishfood in the freezer, but to put live insects in there as well? hrrrmmmmm
