Really nice!

I blown away you get 211 shots (or even 2) from a live insect in the field. Are you the Bug Whisperer?

A very sleepy bee, I do not know the exact species, if someone will kindly mark it, I will be very grateful.

photo made of 3 panels, each about 170 photos, joined to form a panorama.

So a total of about 500 photos.
Of course, a photo taken on a live model, this morning.

A Mohawk bee.

Really great work. What is the dimension & resolution of the final image?

Lovely images, shot under challenging conditions!

I assume these are all shot using your

DIY speed rail - allows me to take 8-10 pics/sec

Do you have a writeup on that rail somewhere? If not, can you say in general how it works? In particular, does it move and stop for each shot, or move continuously while shooting?
