This was illuminated with long wave UV. The image was shot using Helicon Remote to control the process. The stack was 25 slices, shot at f4, 1 second exposure using a Nikon D7200 and a 105 mm Macro lens on a copy stand. The stack was processed using Helicon Focus, using method C. This image was originally over 100MB, but has been scaled down to allow uploading.

You can see why, once something is caught, it is so hard to escape!

Interesting technique. Nice sharp image. Do you often use the "long wave UV" technique? This is new to me.

It is fairly specific to scorpions, they all fluoresce under long wave UV. I also shoot them in white light since each allows different details to be seen.
