So here is my humble effort to show you how I did this. Probably it is easier nowadays to create a video tutorial and post. On the web I could get quite a few video tutorials like this and this, explaining their technique but there was dearth of written tutorials with pictures. Previously I had tried focus stacking using freeware combinez5 which produced fantastic results. As I could not get all the parts of this beetle in focus I remembered the auto-align and auto-blend trick I had seen in the new Adobe Photoshop CS4. I grabbed my trusty Canon 5D Mark II and a Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 USM Macro lens and my Feisol tripod. The other day, I found a Long horned beetle clinging to the siding of my house.
