Stir crazy and way too much time on my hands. So here is a get up that uses a 34 year old Canon 50mm macro len. Extension tubes from Fotodiox and a Sony A7R mirrorless camera. It is 10 shots focus stacked. The whole set up done on a dining room table. I am posting this for comment and suggestions as this is my first real attempt to do macro.

Super sharp. If it were my image I would use a brush in Lightroom to darken that horizontal stem that leads your eye out of the image as well as that large purple flower on the extreme right.What do you think?

I left the stem in to make the tentacle part look like the business end of a sea creature with poison tipped tentacles. I agree about the far right purple leaf being distracting. Thanks for you comment and suggestion.
