Challenge: Clichés and Sayings II (Advanced Editing VII)
Camera: Nikon D200
Location: up close and personal
Date: Oct 7, 2012
Aperture: f24 effective
ISO: 200
Shutter: 1/250
Date Uploaded: Oct 7, 2012

 10 photo focus stack in "studio" setting at approx. 2:1 magnification.

I decided to give this guy a "bath" as he was super dusty pre-photoshoot (had bought some pinned insects to try focus stacking), and the result made him look a LOT more badass, so here is the final result.

I'll post up a pre-bath shot and you'll see that this critter looks completely different depending on his hair style.

0 crop on this photo, which I find pretty cool given the magnification.

Fantastic detail. How could anyone miss the eyes? Congratulations on the top ten.

Wow, that is unsettling.

Looks a bit soggy. And angry, which could be due to the sogginess. Certainly a detailed macro with perfect DOF and focus.

Great macro and very DMC.

And you're a nightmare! Well caught.

Although it is up close, I don't really see any eyes.

ugh, did that fly take a bath in chain grease?

#2, tied with another.
This photo I just really like. Really good macro shot of what looks to be a wet drone bee.
