Biography:

I'm studying for my Master's degree at North Carolina State. My current project involves morphological and molecular phylogenetic studies of horse flies, especially the tribe Diachlorini. I am interested in all flies. I've done research in the past on Chironomidae, Asilidae, and Richardiidae.
If anyone has experience with a Nikon Coolpix 4500 directly mounted onto a microscope, I'd like to hear about your methods for taking good pictures.
