Superb set once again. No. 5 stands out for me - eyes, face, composition. And strangely, when I scroll down on the tablet the eyes in No. 5 flicker as if they are alive - spooky!

But it makes me wonder what sort of place you live in that attracts so many flies!!

I dont live on a dump honestly

Cheers Dan, I always or nearly always shoot at f8, I have read on some macro forums that once you start going beyond 1:1 that your effective aperture changes by an order of magnitude, but for the life of me I cant remember where or which forum it was.
As in, f8 would really be the equivalent of f64, or something.
All I know is that by f11 I no longer like the results all that much. And light becomes an issue.
Cheers
Derek

Nice, I use the same bellows for my macro shooting. The stop should be easy to replace.
Nice box too.
