Macro photography is an entry into the parallel universe that’s always around us, but unnoticed. Field macro photography of insects is rewarding because it’s technically challenging. Most macro photos that I take are focus stacks, whereby I take around 30 photos of the subject, each at slightly different focus points. I then merge them into a composite image where every bit of the insect is in sharp focus with unrivaled detail. A single photo doesn’t capture as much depth of field or detail. The challenge is finding live insects that sits still during setup.
