    Very nice stuff mate, although I think the mods will merge your threads.

    I take it these were captured with the MP-E and are focus stacked? What about lighting?

    How'd you get them to stay still so long?

    Thanks, guys.

    What ever works...I just didn't want to overwhelm one thread with a bunch of images :)

    A couple were shot with the MP-E, most were shot with my Sigma 150 rig. IIRC only 1, 2, 4, and 8 are stacks. Lighting wise I use a 580EX IIs with home made diffusers.

    Very nice. I had great success with my 580EX II as well. I used a Sigma 105mm at first although latterly I was shooting macros with a reversed kit lens at 18mm f/5.6 and getting much better magnification that way.
