This is to try to bump start this forum back to life!

Possibly the last of my cacti to flower this year. It was sold to me as Golden something, which it clearly is not. I am calling it a Borzicactus. which differentiates it slightly from my Hildewinteras.

I have a splendid Printing-Nikkor 150mm macro lens which I have not used much, even less so on FF.

A7r3, Olympus OM x1.4TC, extension (mainly 2 Olympus OM telescopic tubes) to ca 125mm from the flange, 150mm lens at f11. ISO 160. Twin Nissin Air 1 flash guns with controller on hot shoe. Black rubber back of small mat as background.

The TC was to spread the 30mm image circle and the rubber mat for a dark background. Setup hand-held and very tiring.

The individual images have been cropped moderately for composition and maximum impact.

Crosseye stereo.
