Small Copper No 2
D7000
Sigma 150
500iso 250th @f13
70%of full frame.
Used a small apertutre to get depth of field and didn't go in too close. A good example of how cropping can help in a case like this. In my view anyway

Cracking image of a difficult species JR, the large version is superb. What is the ghostly antenae on the smaller image? Is that stacking?

Thanks all.
Nick- Bad darkening if a highlight in the already reduced small pic. Sloppy wotk.Didn't reduce the brush size enough. Thanks for pointing it out. This is not stacked - hence the f 13

Nit covered, but easily sorted and otherwise a fine shot of a not very easy species.

That's excellent John - really pops out and benefits from the space you have given it :toast:
