Credit where credit is due:

This picture is from the book 'Microcosmos', created by Brandon Brill from London.

This book includes many scanning electron microscope (SEM) images of insects, human body parts and household items.

This is a photo of a Brachypelma smithi (Mexican Red Knee Tarantula) eyes under an electron microscope. Just thought I would share.

Sexing exuviums would definitely be easier :)

But I think the cost is a bit high for the average T keeper... This isn't a photo I took, I received it on an email along with a lot of other electron microscope pictures that are part of a book promotion.

With that sort of magnification, you won't see the spermathecae, you'll see the sperm... and probably back into history... :huh:

Most people are like clouds. The sun comes out when they f*ck off...
