The last moulting of the caterpillar changes it into a pupa/chrysalis. Here it discards most of the external body parts, like proleg, spikes etc. Most importantly it discards the head. Actually the pupa comes out by cracking the head part and its discarded with the eyes, mandibles etc.
Here i have tried to portray the drama of the discarded head of an Ariadne merione, the common castor . Hope you like it.
The subject size was 3mm hence 68mm extention tubes were used along with the 90mm macro lens on my D7200. This was a handheld shot, and even the speedlite was handheld.
