    Agapanthia violacea (Coleoptera, Cerambycidae) Body length: 12 mm.

    Focus stacked image taken early morning under natural light. 29 exposures with Canon MP-E65 lens at 3.9x magnification, f/4.5 1/2 sec. ISO-200. Uncropped. I wanted to do a deeper stack, but the beetle changed its position.

      Wonderful work. I think the depth of field looks just right. Sometimes a partial stack is just what the eye wants to see.
