Focus Stacked Fly Face
Oct 21, 2022 20:38:43 #
This is the face of a green bottle fly that I keep in the freezer. I staged it for a focus stacking session using a reverse-mounted 28mm enlarger lens mounted onto a reverse-mounted Raynox DCR150 on fully extended bellows.

Wow, talk about up close and personal!
Thanks, Longshadow. The optics and bellow extension resulted in 7.5X magnification filling the frame of the APS-C sensor camera.

That is really close and detailed, Gary, good work!
Thanks, UTMike. It won't be long and fly season will be over. I have a few that I preserved this summer to stage during the long winter months.

Excellent. Have you seen the ant face on the Fox News site? Wow.
Thanks, Kpmac. Yes, I saw the black ant's entry in Nikon's Small World. This is one of my preserved black carpenter ants that I posted in June that I staged with the same 28mm enlarger lens setup.

Considering the complexity of the multi signals from the Fly Eye !!!
Well, I wonder, does it think about what it sees in JPEG or RAW?
Thank you for mentioning "Nikon's Small World."
