Honey bee extreme close-up

[Frank F.]

Hey, the fly is dead? What are you up to? If I compare this shot with Bob Friedman's dead insects I see a lot lacking. He has posted extensive making ofs of his rig, his lighting, his background. There is a lot to learn. As a hint I can say that I can achieve the shown resolution with living samples of bees

I've never heard of Bob or his dead insects but I'll be sure to check him out. Thanks for the info!
