Thanx for your kind comments on my images Vernon. I just love macro and modern technology (i.e., digital - which is what I was weaned on) seems to make it easier to do than ever before.

Hi Benedict,
Thanx for the kind words. The critter was peched outdoors and untouched by me. It was a cooperative midel though. I should also note that the image is a composite of two taken in succession with the goal of increasin the DOF at this high magnication.
Best,
Mark

Superb portrait! Compositing different planes of focus to increase depth of field is an inspiring idea - I will try it with film and software.

Well, Mark, you got closer than me, indeed! BTW, how do you convince them to stay still between the two shots? ;)

Hi Mark,
AMAZING!
You're the KING of macro to me, you must certainly have a lot of patience to shoot those bugs.

Hi Mark,
This one is 'off the charts' for sure!!!
It's already a favorite! I have never seen one this good! Incredible all the detail you have captured here. It's just beyond me how you can get this close, focus, take several; all without the insect moving!
Next time you can tell him to 'open wide' and say 'Ahhh'
FANTASTIC PHOTOGRAPH my friend!!!!
Lori ;)

Wow! My only question is...
Is he/she smiling?
Great macro.

He looks like he is smiling and must have been very patient for his 'Sitting' if you indeed used four 'Soft Boxes' for lighting ... just kidding of course! Very well done and Best of Regards.
