The Elegug Stacks consist of two large detached pillars of limestone which in the spring provide valued nesting sites for razorbills and guillemots. Elegug is the Welsh for guillemot
Used by the Ministry of Defence as a firing range, since the 1940s, there has been relatively little human influence on this area of the south Pembroke Coast dominated by dramatic limestone cliffs.
This lack of disturbance has produced a rich, unspoilt range of habitats for wildlife (apparently the wildlife don’t mind the noise too much!

DOF of a single shot is about +-0.9 microns, you need approx 1000 single shots for a depth of 1 mm (I use 50% overlap in most cases, which gives better results. Else, you still need some 500 single pictures in this example)

Inntel Hotels Amsterdam-Zaandam has been labelled the most bizarre hotel in the world by news channel CNN.
This typically Dutch building consists of a stack of almost seventy traditional detached Zaan houses in four different shades of Zaan green. Here, the present is connected to the past and tradition to innovation. Five different Zaan house types can be distinguished in the facade, from workers' houses to notary houses.
A striking exception is the blue house in the upper right corner, which refers to the painting "La Maison Bleue" by the famous French artist Claude Monet during his visit to the Zaan region in 1871.
Inntel Hotels Amsterdam-Zaandam is door nieuwszender CNN bestempeld als het meest bizarre hotel ter wereld.
Dit oer-Hollandse gebouw bestaat aan de buitenkant uit een opeenstapeling van bijna zeventig traditionele losse Zaanse huisjes in vier verschillende tinten Zaans groen.
Hier wordt heden verbonden met verleden en traditie met vernieuwing. Er zijn vijf verschillende Zaanse woningtypen te onderscheiden, van arbeidershuisjes tot notariswoningen.
Opvallend afwijkend is de knalblauwe woning in de rechterbovenhoek, deze verwijst naar het schilderij "La Maison Bleue" van de beroemde Franse kunstenaar Claude Monet tijdens zijn bezoek aan de Zaanstreek in 1871.

An old Norwegian myth rule says you have to put another rock onto the stack if you don't want the trolls coming.
An old Norwegian hikers rule says you have to put another rock onto the stack to mark the path.
A new Norwegian tourist rule says you have to put another rock onto the stack if you like this place and want to come back.
A good starting point for a series of lots of Norway photos being uploaded in the next weeks.
In playing around with my new 50mm lens, I find myself looking for ANY foto opportunity just to experiment with the lens.
This is a set of sport stacking cups. We have some world class stackers here in Heppenheim. Here you can see the world record by Robin Stangenberg from my hometown (please don't forget to come back to my picture and leave a comment ;-): player.broadbandvideo.com/asxgen.asp?ShowOrClip=c&Med...

With a long intermodal train in tow, CP 8747 races eastward past the 10,600 ft siding at Gap, Alberta. The train has conquered the climbs of Rogers Pass and Kicking Horse Pass, so from here it's all a gentle downgrade along the Bow River to Calgary.
In the distance are the peaks of Mt Lawrence Grassi and Ha Ling Peak, part of Bow Valley Wildland Provincial Park.

South Stack is an island known as a Sea Stack. It was formed by the wave erosion of sedimentary rocks that once connected the island to the mainland.
The area is known geologically as the South Stack Formation. Its strata includes sandstones and interbedded shales which have been contorted by large folds and crumples. The folds can be seen in the seacliffs. Thick beds of pure Holyhead Quartzite, which forms the bulk of Holyhead Mountain, lie above these folded sedimentary rocks. Recent studies suggests the rocks appearance was caused by large scale earth movements which is not a part of the normal sedimentary process; however, this theory remains controversial. Similar evidence of upthrusts can be seen in the cliffs to the south of South Stack.

I wish everybody all the best for next year. May it be more peaceful than 2017...
One of the many stone stacks that appear occassionally in Pucks Glen. This one was unusual in its location (bit a climb down to get to it) and its shape (the first I've seen of this style).
Another focus stack that I was happy with. This one was back lit as well as illuminated with a ring light on the lens. I used 7 of the original 13 images shot for this final image.

Last week I posted a few "action shots" of this charming fellow who lived with me a couple of years ago. Well, I decided my grieving period is now officially over, so a few days ago I pulled his body from the morgue and respectfully shot a few stacks of him.
This is stacked from 464 exposures in Zerene Stacker.
