Also, many folk will have a hard time achieving 'stereoscopic co-incidence' in this type of scenario - visually precarious and frequently unstable. I can see where you're going though, you want simultaneous viewing, and the root of the problem i see is that you are trying to use 1 eye for slide, 1 eye for wing. How about ensuring your reference slide is scaled to life-size, putting it on a wee light box (a torch ('flash-light" for the americans) would do in extreme need, but a softer diffuser would be better, like those el-cheepo touch-lamps have), sit your sample wing overtop and view both with one eye through the loupe (assuming the slide had good enough venous contrast)? Myself, i'd still be leaning towards the enlargement and Chris' mind's eye (which was what i meant by "temporal" - view one at a time). Then Harvey's super-slides can stay safely locked in the vault with the master CD (although different vaults - eggs in one basket and all), and i can take the enlarged easy-to-see print-out into the field (or maybe just my laptop - propolis keys!). Each to their own preference - but first ya gotta have the reference wing pic's available on Barry's site ey?! >The slide
"V"s would have to be sized Uh oh... >The vein
