So many sensors all read by a miniature brain... Yet still able to fly, flip, and land on the ceiling... I find that amazing.

Presenting a photo like this to a 9th grade biology class and asking "tell me what impresses you" would give the students a lesson in the appreciation of nature. As usual, well done sippy.

How about a fly for the 4th of July? This is one of the several preserved flies in my collection of specimens that I staged for a focused stacking session using a 5X magnification microscope objective as the optic for the camera. The background is a sample paint swatch that I get at the local paint and hardware store.


You are so creative Sippy! You do amazing work!!!

This has a Picasso-esq feel. You are a true artiste!

Thanks, Dupllum. My goal is to bring out as much detail in my specimens as possible with the gear that I have available and to share what I see through my optics with others.

Thanks, Raymondh. Each time I frequent the local paint and hardware store, I pick up a few of the free color paint swatches for they make good background colors for my sessions. The yellow swatch produced an interesting feel to the image when the stack was processed.

Thanks, Jaymatt. I doubt that I will ever run out of flies so I will always have something to stage before the camera.
