Lasioglossum sopinci, F, red form, NC, Moore co_2013-09-20-173831 ZS PMax_9856798724_o Lasioglossum sopinci lives in sand deserts in Eastern North America. It comes in two forms one of which is all black and this form, one with a reddened abdomen, some experimentation with a new styrofoam cooler bounce chamber for the flash, not too bad, particularly well let from the going to blacken the back of the box more with felt to see if some of back-lighting can be reduced which spins a halo that has to be PS'ed out.
