This is one of the preserved Japanese Beetles that I staged for a focus stacking session this afternoon. It is another in the series of using pastel gradient paper as a background.
I staged this session with my go-to setup of reversed lenses, extension tubes and the ping-pong ball as a light diffuser with multiple directional lighting.
Thanks in advance to all who view and for your comments, suggestions, questions and critique.

Photos of dead insects don't quite look right in my opinion.
Doesn't look Japanese. Irish, maybe, with all that green.
But seriously... excellent!!!
