A species of aphid on a climbing plant stem.

Re: Aphid

Thanks for your comment and appreciation.🙂

I had intended to get a deeper DoF from multiple frames, but the aphids are moving and it requires a precise and fast motorized device that I haven't finished building yet.

The same individuals can be seen in the center of a wider frame captured with a stereoscopic device in the same light conditions at f:22, but the stereoscopic device does not allow getting frames at acceptable quality for a scene width less than 20mm.
