Fotografare i bruchi che saranno le farfalle del prossimo anno è un po' come usare la macchina del tempo! Stacking di una novantina di immagini in cui purtroppo c'è qualche piccolo artefatto dovuto ai minimi movimenti del bruco. Interessante notare che il bruco si stia nutrendo di Aristolochia Clematitis e non di Aristolochia Rotunda.

The pleasure was all mine, I congratulate you for your beautiful photos that you presented last night and the exhaustive explanations you gave on the techniques and equipment used. It was a very pleasant evening that also allowed me to meet a group of amateur photographers "La Ghiacciaia".

Thank you Giulio, in reality unfortunately there are some small artifacts but the micromovements of the caterpillar are in fact inevitable. In hindsight I would take fewer shots with a slightly smaller aperture and maybe I would repeat the sequence two or three times to have a better chance of avoiding even the smallest movements. Perhaps the most interesting aspect, which I indicated in the caption, is not photographic but naturalistic: in fact, the caterpillar is feeding on a plant of Aristolochia Clematitis and not of Aristolochia Rotunda as usually happens in the rare populations of the Po Valley.
