Congratulations Patrick!!!
Lots of caterpillars out right now. I saw this one hanging upside down, and took a shot of the feet. It looked interesting so I kept zooming in until I got this image at about 4X. Those soft fuzzy looking hairs are actually barb shaped spines at this magnification. I opened up the aperture a bit because at this magnification the effective f-stop is quite small and diffraction loss becomes really significant. There are always compromises in photography, hence the shallow depth of field.
Canon EOS 5D III, MP-E 65, MT-24 diffused, ISO 200, f10, 200 sec., no crop, processed in LR4 and NIK Color Efex Pro 4. All comments welcome.
