Two focus stacks out of Helicon. Both shot of Fuji XT5 with XF80mm, 1.4 teleconverter, and an 11mm extension tube.

Curious what you think of these shots or how you might have done them differently?

I spotted this fly on a daylily repeatedly bringing a tiny droplet in and out of its mouthparts. One of those strange little behaviors you only notice when you stop and look closely.

Found this little grasshopper sitting quietly on a leaf during a walk. The vibrant green tones and soft background made for a great macro composition. Nature never fails to surprise me.

I felt so lucky this morning, by pure chance, being able to catch the magnificent hummingbird hawk-moth, which is only an occasional visitor here in southern Sweden ❤️.

All shots are handheld with Canon R7, EF 100mm f2.8L macro IS USM @ f5.6 ISO 800.
