A bluebottle

sacrificed in order to fulfil my desire to look at something under the microscope, just to give me something to do. Corin zapped it with the electric fly swatting tennis racquet. He overcooked bluey and it smelled. But then bluey was a determined little bugger and continued to bazz around on his back in the container I put him in for about 4 hours, till Corin sprayed him with his nicotine spray and bluey was no more.

This is one of its eyes. Couldn't quite get my game on enough to dissect the bluebottle into constituent parts, so had to play canny with lighting in order to capture the surface of the eye.

Other than that, I have been on the sofa all day.
