The highlights are blown out but apart from that it's a nice shot of a fly's eye.
 
Nice one Paul, loads of detail there. What magnification did you use? I've heard lots of stories about diffraction at higher mags at f16.
 
That is a stunning shot aid an extremely ugly creature !
 
Well exposed and superbly sharp image. How much did you crop?, I like to see the full frame if possible
 
Thanks for taking the time to comment (y)

Thanks - I think it must have been around 4:1 - i think the FF sensor can cope with higher apertures than a cropper - this was an effective aperture of approx f80 :eek: - its not something i tend to worry about - I've enough on trying to get the focal plane in the right place
