Thanks, Paul, and to everyone else who had a look. I'm really enjoying
learning how to make these images and appreciate the feedback.

Actually - this is a lens test but the flesh fly was the subject:

The lens being tested is an Otamat 20mm f1.7 microfiche reader lens. I
bought this and the Otamat 10mm some years ago, and am finally getting
around to using them. While it has high resolution it makes a very low
contrast and low saturation image, and so I have pumped things up in
post processing. There is a good bit of detail but also a somewhat
misplaced aspect to the color and contrast - probably an artifact of
manipulating things after exposure. Finding an optic to get into the 5x
and beyond realm is a bit of a challenge. My snowflake setup works at
those magnifications, but it really intended for single exposures and
not stacked images.
A few shots of my incredibly high tech camera support and subject
mounting system are also in this post. :-)
Thanks for looking!
