I've been taking a lot of macro photos lately and I thought why not see how these photos look in monochrome? This is my entry to the Monomad Photography Challenge by @brumest and @monochromes.

Each of these photos is made from eight focus-stacked shots merged in-camera to produce a single image.  The focus stacking increases the depth of field and greatly enhances the level of detail shown.

The equipment used was an Olympus E-M1 Mk II camera with 60 mm f/2.8 macro lens.  The photos were made hand-held.  Conversion to monochrome was done in Lightroom.

All photos are by me, @keithboone. This is my first post in the Black and White community. Thanks very much for visiting!
