“To create his images, Perani uses a 10x microscope objective paired with a 200mm lens, resulting in an extremely shallow depth of field. Achieving focus requires moving the lens in tiny increments of no more than 3 microns per photo, to capture the thickness of the subject, which can measure up to 8 millimeters. This meticulous process involves taking 350 individual exposures, each capturing a narrow slice in focus, which are then composited together. Perani repeats this process six times across different sections of the butterfly wing, producing a total of 2,100 exposures that are meticulously combined into a single, stunning image.”
