1st attempt with new macro set up. Not the best lens in the world but it seems to work. Focus stacked in Photoshop. Yashica 55mm macro lens. Fully manual legacy lens. Extended 60mm on tubes. Lighting jig by me.

I spent an hour in the garden earlier trying to get a bee in flight. I used a fully manual lens for this. No chance of getting this close with the kit lens. Flash used to freeze the movement. It took maybe 30 attempts before I got this one.
