Shave My Legs ??

Do you think the use of Macro on this which causes the loss of

defination due to the tightness of depth of field makes this a bad

image? I hve not found a way to get around the blur. Thanks so much .

Stunning in its clarity.

Very nice detail in this.

 

I like the title as well.

 

The surface where the insect is standing adds a lot to the image acting as a backdrop.

Funny, beautiful and with nice blur. Good macro.

shallow dof is OK, but in this case it would be better to have eyes in focus.

Very nice macro!

Very nice, Vicki. I like the background you've created by the metal grate and the focus on his eyes is just right (although, a bit of sharpening can help.) Congratulations!

Thats a really amazing shot for a 717. so well composted too. 7/7 indeed

You've done a good job, IMO I love that softness

and I don't think it would be shot any better.

woow. its a very beautiful macro... great focus ....cvongrats. 7/7.

This is an amazing shot!!! Well done.

It is a very nice macro as others have already said. Check out CombineZM, it is a stacking software that uses several frames with different focus points to increase the depth of field. It is not so easy to get good picture with almost complete depth of field such as they show on their home page. This is my best attempt:

I had to blur the closest antenna because it moved and caused a double image. But the depth of field is many times greater than with just f/22. If you view it large you can see what happens to dust spots, they get exaggerated, I have blurred most of them, but some remain.
