Thanks, Ken.
The insects are dead in these shots. I catch them in a plastic film
canister and put them in the freezer. I've been able to do in the field
stack focusing of live subjects for shots up to 1x life sized, but
getting into the higher magnifications and stacking more images really
requires that the subject be immobile - and I only know one way to
achieve that...

Nice captures MArk, but you need better looking specimens.
Was it alive ? 69 frames must have taken some time and apparently it
didn't move.

Subject: PESO - Leaf Footed Bug
After photographing a few stink bugs, I've been waiting for more
attractive insects to use as subject for extreme macros. Yesterday a
leaf footed bug showed up in my house -

More attractive? Not so much... 69 stacked images, K3, DFA50mm on
extension tubes (I am lucky to have some old Vivitar tubes with full
contacts). Metz flash.
I may try some other angles tomorrow. Comments welcomed.
