Pattern Eye

Post by nto »

this and catch today, I searched for a long time bug eye detail, with 10x becomes easier to capture detail and composition but hair problems become, with time perhaps learn to use software to manage the photo, 350d Olympus 10x NA 0.25 155 jpg for the first 113 for a second photo

Antonio,

This is superb!

I can't take my eyes off those eyes; and as usual I am trying to envision the setup details.

Wonderful!

Excellent picture Antonio. I love everything about it. The colors, the detail the perfect background. I cannot stop looking at it. :smt023

Gorgeous!

Is that one of the little 'long legged flies'? (Dolichopodidae)

Thanks to All :D

Craig, my setup and provisional(usable for 10x),
tecnical data is: 350d extension tube 150mm and olympus pln 10x,
image width is approximate 2mm, two flash with diffuser and additional diffuser for subject

Laurie, it is not Dolichopodidae, is Stratiomyidae (soldier flies) green fly - Chloromyia formosa http://bugguide.net/node/view/55845/bgimage

I just love it when someone takes a conventional macro subject and creates something artistic from it! Very nicely done!

Larry, composition and outside the rules, I am not an artist :D , fixed extension tube 150mm helped find pleasing composition!

Ah but Anthonio you did compose the image in a certain way that pleased your eye,therefore you were being creative. And creativity is the backbone of art!

This is an excellent image. It makes me think of a science-fiction cityscape.
