I always suffered with knee-paine and knee-damages in southern contries. For this trip I've bought voleyball knee-protectors. I recomend it to all photographer-entomologist!

Very next season Grin Haute couture for entomophotographers.

Seriously, anything that helps one being comfortable will result in better photographs.

Not much sun here in Sweden at the moment. Now it's autumn and soon winter ... Ughh ... We had a long warm summer, and I already miss it Sad

The knee-pads is a very good idea. I probably ought to get a pair myself with my bad knees. It is also interesting to see picture from Nikitas and Dmitry's adventure in Turkey ... not just bug photos, but scenes like this. God job.

I hope Nikita didn't get angry with me for a little teasing Wink
