Grasshopper Whiskers

This is a portrait of a Carolina locust who was kind enough to sit for me on a cool summer morning. That allowed me to shoot six images for stacking. While the long exposures and stacks worked for portraits, my grasshopper friends had too much abdominal and foot movement for full-body poses. For this portrait, I shot more images for increased depth of field, but I only got to use 6 of them, due to subject movement.

In the low light, I had to use ISO 1250 to avoid subject movement, but the 5D3 does not have much noise at that setting.
