Very nice Rense. Almost SEM-like. How was it lit?

For most of my macros, when not lit naturally only, I use my homemade pop-up flash diffuser. For some info, you could visit my blog:

What an incredibly clever idea for the diffuser. And it certainly looks like it works well.

Wow - I seriously thought it was a metal sculpture on first pass - love the detail and the B&W processing

Yes, I agree with Adrian, it does look like its man made out of steel

What a wonderful image Rense, great texture and the PP really works well. I had a similar idea for a flash diffuser and to my astonishment it actually worked after I made it. Haven't used it for ages, got loads of strange looks at the botanical garden. http://www.realphotographersforum.com/specialist-macro-photography/51-diy-macro-flash-diffuser.html
