These are images of the Bagworm Moth Larvae which makes the cocoons as a larvae, decorating them from bits of the tree it feeds on. I have these hanging in my fern trees at home, but not so many that I would call them pests but it is unusual to see them crawling around during the daytime, as...

First shot was taken with Nikon F100 with Tamron 90mm f/2.8, the others with Nikon FM and FE with Nikkor 55mm f/2.8 All handheld with no flash.

Hello everyone, My name is Lorenzo and I am excited to be here. I primarily am interested in macro photography relating to cannabis, bees, and other product/commercial applications. I photograph a few different genres, but they all dance around the product genre such as cars and cosplay. I...

Continuing to play with my food, and practice on stacking. This was a tough photo set up. No matter what I did in Helicon focus, or in PS stacking, I wound up with halos and blurred areas on these seeds. What I wound up doing was choosing a stack that had the first seed all the way in focus...

I've been working on my holiday photos again, and I always do some with hot drinks for cold snowy days and nights. I am still working with the hot coffee, the steam rising is a serious challenge for photographing. I'm getting close though. I've tried so many things, the soaked and microwaved...

This is a large pin that I am working with. I am still experimenting with focus etc. on the flowers and Butterfly. Editing items shot on black glass is tough, despite cleaning it before the shoot, there is so much dust particles to edit out! This was 57 total stacked photos. I had some issues...

Hi there, I found this slime molds some days ago on a rotten branch and took it with me to take some stacks at home. The first one was made with my extension rings (36, 20 6 12mm) and the Raynox DCR-250 lens attachment. The second one with the extension rings as well but with a Raynox MSN-505...

From my first session of playing with water droplets in the vertical realm (vs drops on flat glass). Droplet on a rose leaf from my yard. Dollar store fake flower in the background/refraction. Lighting was from a constant source (LumeCube panel) and taken in dark-ish room. Need to lower my...

I had a great opportunity here when this happened to land right in front of my camera, and when I used my Nikon 105mm AF lens which I just purchased, I was seriously disappointed with the amount of color fringe in the green and purple. This is just one of many shots this Fly gave me with that...

Hello all my name is David (Bidoulou) I'm making macro shots with an OMD- EM1(+EM10) with a 60mm Oly macro or iPhone 12pro with macro lens (Apexel) . I'm think to with (or add) and moving to full frame cam's but not decided yet. here's a single shot taken with iPhone As you can see, one of its...

I've been practicing water drop photography for over a year now. The action of drop meeting drop happens so quickly that it is very hard to see it with the naked eye. Freezing the motion with flash really is a startling and wonderful thing to see. I Started with a simple sandwich bag hanging...

Thought I'd talk about Stacking for Moon shots as there's a few bits of discussion in other threads about getting a better Moon shot You all know how it improves Macro, but it has a huge impact on Astro work too, but in a different way. Macro stacking gives you more DoF, but stacking for the...

Found this little butterfly when I was testing my new Raynox DCR 250 to Fuji XT1 + Fujinon XF 18-55mm (tried with my Fujinon 60 mm, but unfortunately not fit. I need to buy the step up ring first 😮‍💨). The results are not really satisfying for me because almost the same with my current macro...
