You report that could not rotate your image in post #2820.
We may mostly guess you have something on your computer which will let you rotate the image, save the change or as new file; and then you could upload to a post on P.F.

You could also find some software downloadable online that you can use for same purpose. Plenty of them! Just one example to mention: XnView.

What is odd is it is positioned correctly on my phone. I will readily admit I haven't tried to rotate it before I upload to PF. I'll try the re-save and rotate.

Went to the local State Park today and made some amphibious friends. Three little tree frogs, a toad, and a leopard frog all captured in the grass and delivered to the nearby creek.

… huh, I get the image rotation thing too. Posting from my iPhone and the image got turned a quarter turn counterclockwise.

Aren't stingrays dangerous to get close to?

Yes. Steve Irwin was surprised.
The video want on about it big "stinger". Those are professionals and the stingray seems quiescent and they are controlling its tail. it could be drugged or tired out from its struggles getting caught.

I saw a bunch of rays doing breeding activity in the National Aquarium in Baltimore several years ago. They were in more of a frenzy I would say.

Fly head shot above.

Most of the individual features (like hairs) you can see are affected b many different mutations. The big hairs have individual names and are found in almost all normal (wild type) individuals.
Each facet of the big eyes have 7 or 8 photo-receptors with different properties. They are assembled from embryonic cells in a sequence of interactions to make the the same facet structure over and over. Lots of mutants in those processes too.

Here's a little video of some of the pictures, microscope or SEMs (scanning electron micrographs) of Drosophila melanogaster (lab fruit fly) used in a new version of The Fly Book made for genetics researchers.
