smallest subject iv ever shot - 1.4mm

[macro junkie]

this is 1.4mm....bark fly nymph..im not sure how u work out the size of it but some how lordv who is one of uks best macro photographers said this below which makes no sense to me..oh this shot was at 5X life size

measure the bug length and frame width with a ruler then real bug length =( BLM/FWM) *(22.5/M)
Brian says:
BLM= bug length measured FWM= frame width measured and M= magnification

Beautiful. Yes, I do follow LordV's photos. I can't say much about the formula since I don't do macro work (soon to change).

You should try another challange: A springtail.
Use t0000bz and you will succeed.

Also, a question, do you have any focus stacked photos?
