These photos with the white b
These photos with the white background are spectacular! that are you using for the background>

 
You mean 'what?
I use white card board to pose the living animal. Then I go to photoshop elements and brighten the highlights until the background is a clean white. The insect is usually not affected as its colors are more in the medium range.

 
Thanks! :D
Sorry for the type-o, by the way. :X

Antianthe
This is a yellow version of A. expansa, and the nymphs are less heavily maculated, so it may be a different (possibly undescribed) species. Do you have any close-up shots of the nymphs?

Wow!
That is so cool:-)
