Flesh Fly Face

Composite of two images taken in succession in an effort to increase

dof.

about this shot, light, croping, details, color, DOF. good work.

I hope never to confront so much detail head on (as in Starship Troopers). I wonder when cameras will be able to self-integrate multiple exposures. Was it originally that red white and black? Well done - a 7/7 macro.

I'd say it worked, Mark - DOF looks pretty darn good.

Great!

Well composed and exposed - your successive shots appear seamless.

Great composition and colors. I guess I should say, lack of colors...the black and white go well with the red.

is that what they really look like up close and very personal - yukko, glad I have got plenty of Mortein cos we get heaps of these pests in Australia!! Excellent macro, I love the simple red, black and white.

A wonderful macro shot (again), Mark! good DOF and details, exposure is excellent. I know how hard it is to get the right lighting in this kind of shots. I've tried many times to shot a fly's head, but I've never succeeded to get the gray-brown area between the eyes in good exposure. You did here just great!!

 

Thanks, allon.

 

... but too close for me! I would like more space around, but You know that dear Mark!

6/6, Biliana

Excellent macro. Bravo.

I can see an invisible world through your photos! You are my Master, thank you very much!!

Excellent Mark,, greetings, Hector

Hi dear friend. You are still making amazing macro shots. Last time I've posted anything here was 2 years ago. Diffrent story. Are you by any chance posting your pictures at Photopoints? See ya

Nice macro. The fly is highly detailed.

superb job on this one, i love it! 7/7

Very very nice.

Doing multiple exposures has been possible on many cameras for decades, although it was a tricky process at times and was never automatic as you're suggesting. There was a time when I would have saidthis will never happen because the needs of integrating multiple exposures are incredibly individual and I can't see any software getting smart enough to know what you were planning when you did a shot. However, I beleive there is a Sony camera which will automatically do things such as take two photos of a family and merge them such that closed eyes in one picture will be replaced by a happy smily face in another. I still beleive that the day will never come when it will do everything because of the fact every situations is so personal.

 

Excellent shot! I never would have guessed it was a multiple exposure.

Nice to see you again with your great macro's. Just perfect!

Wish you and yours a wonderful Christmas time and all the best for 2008.
