Hey Mike, Great photo!
Mind telling me which stacking software you use? Up till this point all my macro pics are one picture as I haven't yet began to stack my photos.
I guess another reason I have began to stack my photos is because I can never manage to take that many pictures of a bug that can fly. They always move and I can never line up that many shots exactly.
Zerene stacker, free trial for 30 days then about £60 one off payment.
The lens used was from an old minolta film scanner mounted on an even older set of russian bellows - the scanner was about £40 on ebay. It doesn't have to be expensive. Before buying extreme macro equipment have a look at the sites and forums on the net, I learnt a lot there.
