46 Frame Stack of Sexton Beetle

Thought I'd put this of on here as well as the insect section as it's a demonstration of how a certain time consuming stacking technique can capture detail.

It's one of my husband's specimens - a Sexton Beetle.

Taken with Nikon D300/Nikkor 60mm micro/reverse mounted pb6 bellows/Nikon twin macro light system.

Post processed in Photoshop CS4.

It makes you realise the tiny details are perfectly adapted for digging - ain't insects amazing?
