Sometimes I find flies with a very badly visible wing venation. Like Chironomidae, Ceratopogonidae or Scatopsidae. It is very difficult to photograph the wing venation of these flies as iT is nearly transparant.

Does anybody have tips or tricks to take good pictures of these wings to improve the visibility of the veins?
