Mosquito T-shirts

Hi guys:

Since the majority of you are working with our friends the insects, I thought that you might like to have an eye on the link bellow. It is actually an online museum created by some guys in the UK (maybe some of you already know this web site museum) . The museum aims to show high resolution/definition pictures of the mini/micro world. Hence this beautiful collection of insect portraits. As a photographer, I have never seen microphotographs as focused and clean as this. Having pictures like this is just impossible with normal techniques. Anyway, the guy explained to me that they used stereomicroscopy coupled with a software to compile images taken at different focuses. Check the definition of those pictures, it is just amazing!

I thought that a picture of the portrait of a mosquito (of the type that you have on the website) on a T-shirt would be great. A friend of mine that is a stylist in Paris already made T-shirts with insects on them and those had a lot of success. I think that having a well-designed T-shirt would be great. People would buy our T-shirt because they would be making a good action but also because they would have a really nice T-shirt to show to their friends. We live in a world where people care so much about the way they look.
