Not an insect expert so can't help in that respect. Thanks Chris. This is actually 3 shots stacked, but I took 11 shots in total! Then, in PP, I realised that the fly was sort of, "rising and lowering" on it's legs as the bubble got bigger, so I only had three frames that were similar enough to stack. Otherwise, I'd have achieved a wider DoF. hsmoscout wrote in post #9712580 Wow. Nice! Is this with just the 100mm or with extension tubes added? Yep, 100mm macro plus all three tubes = 2:1 mag, shot in RAW, and then I cropped down so this is about 3:1. orionmystery wrote in post #9712671 Very nice shot. Thanks a lot! racketman wrote in post #9715465 its believed bubble blowing has something to do with aiding digestion. Haven't seen a bubble that big myself. Thanks for that Toby. It certainly makes more sense than thinking the fly was exuding water! "Whatever you do, enjoy yourself...otherwise, what's the point."

chrisa2007 Senior Member More info | Mar 03, 2010 05:11 | #8 Ah, that's even better, hadn't even realised it was a stack. I guess with those tubes and mag on the 100mm it's a fine DOF. Are you shooting with the lens wide open and no flash ? macro-photo.co.uk
