Those pics are so, so cool---thanks for posting them! Angels and Insects is one of my favorite movies, too. :) I like how all the women wear dresses that make them resemble butterflies (that brilliant blue, for example)... You might also like The Governess (1998), which has a natural history theme and beautiful cinematography.

Oh I never thought of how the dresses resembled butterflies- nice observation- I will be thinking about that when I watch it again one day.
Thanks for the recommendation of The Governess, I've never heard or seen it and I'm excited to see it! Thanks!!!

Hi I emailed you at that address but have not heard from you yet. I hope you got my message. I LOVE your website, and would be honored for you to use any of the photoshop collages I have made, and would be happy to customize them for you to fit your website needs, just for the fun of it, because I think it such a great website.

Interesting website. The slides themselves are beautiful, little pieces of art.

Like the monkey microscope too!

Yes! I like what you said, that the slides are like little peices of art- I agree!
