Dayfly leg and wing & Housefly Leg

This is a Dayfly leg. The top of the leg is the calf and the bottom is the thigh of Dayfly. It seems like a human leg. If you see the ficture in detail, you can see bristles like human mustache. A cicle shape that keep close the leg is a drop of water. I dropped a drop of water on the leg that is on the slide glass. The picture was magnified 64times under a microscope. 
This is the calf that has numerous bristles. There're also drops of water. The knuckle between a small calf and a middle calf stick a long hair that is looked like a bone. It seems like a timber of coarse grain, doesn't it? The picture was magnified 160 thimes under a microscope.
  It looks like a block which was made with gimlets. Does it hurt you if you touch it? haha.. This was magnified 640times under a microscope.
This is the picture of Housefly leg. It's similar to the Dayfly leg. However the bristles of Housefly leg are much longer and stronger, I think. The picture was magnified 160times under a microscope.
This is a wing of Dayfly. Even if the top of the wing was torn up, it looks wonderful. At the middle of the wing, there is a line which divide up the wing into two part. There are lots of marks of water on the wing. This picture was magnified 640times under a microscope.
