Few beginner macro pics

All were taken with 50mm and 135mm Minolta lenses on GX1. You can see larvae of mites attached to the thorax in two pics. I did some research and once they mature they should drop back in the water lay eggs and cycle continues. I think the latin the name of these mites is Arrenurus Trombidiidae.

Now I want to try to something beyond 1:1 and maybe even stack some images, this macro stuff is very additive.

Tried to take some pics with lens on the bellows, so far focusing is very very hard. Raspberry..

Something I pulled from the spider web. My first feeble attempt at focus stacking with CombineZP.
