but why did u shoot the last one at f5?
snowalker - using a 40D/MPE-65/430Ex flash - more info here http://www.flickr.com/groups/topic/66514/
Jorngenesen. As the magnification goes up on an MPE-65, the diffraction softening gets progressively worse so if you want fine detail in the shot you have to open up the aperture. Most of these shots are focus stacked from several shots to get some of the DOF back

Phil- if the bee had had a drop on it's back I might have tried at a refraction

Looking at your sequence of pictures I could really get a grasp abou the range of magnification one can get from the MPE-65.
Thanks
