Where's Webber Waldo? 2023-05-11-A2-C3-x41-20-40-04-(C,Smoothing3)-copy-1-Recovered
Processing this faded tulip image provided me with a real education. At first, I mistook all the webbing Waldo provided for artifacts of the focus stacking process. For example, the web stretching from the stem to the bottom left of the blossom seemed to be six or seven lines, and the all the curves near the petal seemed ridiculous, so I just cut it all out.
Then I discovered Waldo, who is plausibly responsible for all the webbing. Then I examined the images that made up the focus stack, and discovered that there was only one piece of web attached with all the curves, but it moved significantly from exposure to exposure, as if flapping in a breeze.
So I copied that big piece of webbing from the image with the curls in best focus, and pasted it into the stacked image, and did a similar paste from an image with the webbing between the bottom petal tips. And I left most of the other webbing in, as it hadn't flapped about nearly as much. Now I'm wondering how much other webbing I've cut out of other images that I mistook for artifacts.
