First, I trained the wasp to keep quite still and then I took about 30 shots each at a different focal distance. These were then melded together using Zerene software. The result was tidied-up using Photoshop. I use a focus-stacking rig based on old travelling microscope.

Ah, now I understand. I will delete it from the alternative process. Focus stacking seemed to qualify it for that. My mistake. Many thanks for pointing this out and your further kind comments. Regards.

The image is positively amazing and could be utilized as an ad for Nikon lenses. In fact, I would vote for it as a "People's Choice" award in any of the other categories in which you have this listed. However, the "Alternative Process" category states, "All types of Alternative Processes welcome here. Platinum, Palladium, Cyanotype, Tintype, etc. Note: this is not a digital category". I viewed your portfolio and find your images quite stunning so, no, the comment was not negative, but merely an observation. -Cheers!

What an interesting comment. What do you mean by "digital"? Is this a plus or a minus comment?
Yes, a digital camera was used but there has not been any post-processing other than to blend the layers together. What you see is exactly what came out of the camera. No changes to saturation, contrast, sharpening, levels, curves or anything like that.
No film equipment could ever achieve an image like this, so perhaps your perceived digitalness is a function of the surprising depth of field at this magnification combined with the excellent sharpness from a good quality microscope lens.
