Description
I started getting some shots of insects I find on a white BG. Had the idea that they would look great on a T-shirt. It all came about with a Wolf Spider I shot on the stucco of my house and with the right levels the grey stucco became white and looked interesting to me for that idea (Posted that image a while back.
Anyway, this is a Medfly, and an early version of that idea. I took this one on a gray cloth at that time. Since then I have changed to a white board I painted with Flat white primer. Wasn't liking the fuzz under the insects.
The text/font layout at this point is in the idea stage and I may change it up a bit before I attempt any printing of shirts.
This is the only one of the 4 on white insects I have that was a stack of multiple shots. Sometimes its just tough to get that done in a controlled shoot.
Thanks for looking. Bruce
PS I really don't want to turn this into a commercial for peddling goods, but if anyone here was interested in this, shoot me a site mail.

Great job, good luck with the t shirt ideal.
TERRIFIC MACRO
Awesome!
Very well done.
Fantastic! It will be a winner!
Wow, that is really great work. Great concept to shoot them on white background like this. I also really love how you framed this up. Love to see more of this series.
I was thinking diphtheria when I first scrolled down.superb macro
Awesome details. Aloha
Amazing capture my friend. Good luck with the T shirt idea. God Bless.
A super capture and I hope you can sell heaps of these. I think the Red Bubble website makes tee shirts.
Great idea! :) Fantastic capture!
awesome !
That will be great! Your photos are fantastic for this!!
Nice shot , how about one of a monkey on the back of a shirt.
Wonderful. Great work.
I guess my wants in a shirt image are simpler. I would put black oxford shoes on the three feet that are showing, then simply label it Shoefly! (I too thought 'diptheria' at first glance) This is a spectacular shot!
Brilliant shot, and a great idea :)
Wonderful!!
A brilliant idea. You might get many sales from the Flickr Diptera group.
Awesome shot and layout. :)
Wonderful looks like it should be in a book of bugs!
Great work and a great idea instead - I hope the shirts will be megasellers.
works brilliantly! OUTSTANDING portrait!!!!!
