Machimus portrait

    Newer Older

    A portrait of the same Robber Fly of genus Machimus I posted earlier today. These two big compound eyes give this aerial predator excellent vision.

      Incredible detail! I love how you chose b&w. The details of the eyes just jump out at you.

      fabulous image.

      how do you get so much depth with the reversed lens technique? i've tried this with a 50mm macro reversed and attached to a 100mm macro, and it seems my depth of field is always limited to just a few millimeters.
