Bugs!



All these photos were taken by me in the bug exhibit at the California Oil Museum in Santa Paula, CA.

Update: Although I do love being able to see insects up close and personal, I was very disappointed to learn that almost all pinned insects are captured, then killed by either being frozen to death or put into a poisonous "kill jar". I guess I was naive to think that all the bugs died of natural causes. This just doesn't sit right with my ethics. The lives of these beautiful creatures being snuffed out for my personal pleasure just isn't worth it to me. Animals and insects can and should be enjoyed and appreciated without death or harm.
