Hello,
Just thought I'd share the results of my first attempt at photographing
scorpion fluorescence.
This first photo, for reference, is of the scorpion in the wild. This photo was
made with OM-2s, Fuji Superia X-TRA 400, MD2, T-32 w/diffuser, Vivitar
100mm/2.8 Macro.

The gear used for the photos below:
Camera - OM-4 w/MD2
Film - Fuji Superia X-TRA 400
Lens - Vivitar 100mm/2.8 Macro at f32
Tripod/Head - Bogen Manfrotto 3021BPro w/Bogen Manfrotto 486RC2
Light source - 4 watt handheld fluorescent UV lamp
All photos made in auto mode, unfortunately I didn't think to time the
exposures, the macro ratio is 1:2.

I have a few more shots taken with OM-2s that I've yet to scan. I'll post those
at a latter time.
Hope you all enjoy and please feel free to comment, critique, or ask questions.
Thanks to all who offered advice,
Darin
