Trapped this doli fly in the kitchen the other day. Turned out to be a brush- footed doli, only seen this once before. All shots focus stacked using zerene stacker.

Lovely set.

3, 4, and 5 are rockin', Brian!! did you use the 100mm or e65? I'm just curious with regard to your level of detail and what's possible.

thanks for sharing!

wow, love that brush foot :)

I like #2,3 the most, on #3 did you crop out a bit of his "right foot"?

great stacking, how many photos per picture?

amazing detail on the last crop!

Thanks for the comments Bas, Mikelangelo and Warlord :)

Mikelangelo - all MPE-65 shots

Warlord used 3 or 4 shots for the stacks

Splendid series, Brian. You captured this doli splendidly in all. The last two shots are super duper great!

Superb shots Brian, Fantastic stacks.

I think I may have photographed one of these this evening. Rather metallic looking body also. Will have a look at it later on. If it is, it's certainly not up to the standard of your shots hehe. :)
