Antonio,

I am certainly not qualified to judge the technical merits of your stack, but the image is appealing to me. Are the multi-colored shadow caused by the stacking?

Thanks Roy, yes is the multi-colored shadow stacking, light central background is the white base where attacked subject

Antonio,

I'm not sure what you are seeing that is "not good", it really looks quite excellent to me!
Very nice image!

I like it too!
Especially the hairs worked out nicely, can´t see misleading artifacts, they are just in the place where one would expect them.

Looks great to me too! Maybe just a tad bright for my screen setup, but that's something you will never get right for everyone!!

Fantastic colours, and a nice pose!

Personally I find metalic shiny beetles one of the hardest things to light nicely but you've done an excellent job with this specimen...
