Thank you Frank :)
It’s Z50ii / 500pf, import RAW to Studio NX to export Tiff, then import Tiff to Topaz Denoise for denoise/ sharpening and the final JPEG to FastStone image viewer for final edits.

Was about to pinch it of my freshly cleaned garden furniture this afternoon, but luckily i hesitated and gave it a closer look. Soon concluded that it was completely motionless, which, slowly started me bringing more gear. Looks like an exoskeleton of something. Anybody’s got a clue?
