I think the Fly is the most photographed insect. This is my best attempt yet.
Canon 5Dsr with 65mm MP-E lens.
Thanks for any feedback, Chris

Nice shot.
I'm struggling, but having fun, with my MP-E 65, some details/hints would be appreciated (camera settings, lighting etc.)

I used a tripod with a side rail. I aligned 4 photos using Hugin, stacked the 4 using Enfuse and edited in Gimp.
Hugin (software): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hugin_(software)
Enfuse: http://software.bergmark.com/enfusegui/Main.html
GIMP: https://www.gimp.org

I'm a freeware type of guy :)

Thanks.. I use Zerene, when stacking for macro. Not too expensive to start, but free upgrades. Looks like your software aligns pretty good, hard to beat Free.
