Omg, I have never seen them. But the photo itself is gorgeous. How you managed to get so close ?

Well Jack -it was pretty easy. What you don't see is that my puppy chewed off the back half of the mole cricket. We just got a standard poodle puppy, and he gets into everything. I woke up the other morning to him barking at and munching on the subject. Not sure how it got in my house. So, this poor fellow was very dead when I took his picture.

Alright, I though it was alive. I guess , is not possible to take such of images when insects are alive.

Impressive stack! I haven't seen such an insects before but it's really interesting.
The background looks a bit busy. I think that you've rendered the stack with method C, haven't you?
