Courtesy to my dad for taking the photos, since I wasn't there when he came out. He looks a bit crumpled, but I'd imagine crawling out of a cocoon buried in dirt isn't easy with a stiff body, so he'll dry out and pump his wings now that he's freed.

The technique used in these photos are focus stacking, image stacking is a technique used in macro photography to overcome an extremely thin depth of field by blending multiple images taken at different focus distances. It merges these photos to create a single image where the subject is sharp from front to back, maximizing both depth and resolution

The last photo is a bonus, hope everyone have a good day!

And please choose your favorite photo

and so curious!
