Early morning at the Stacks of Duncansby, which are silhouetted against the brighly lit cliffs behind. Near to John O'Groats and Duncansby Head in Caithness in the far NE of Scotland.

Canon eos 60D + Sigma 105mm os + 68mm of extension tubes + Flash Venus KX800. Stack of 10 shots hand held in the field on a living subject, F7.1 , 1/250s, iso 2500.
This 50x 5s stacked image was lightened in Photoshop. Fire Skies are often the best uses of this type of post-processing. In this equivalent 4.1 minute exposure, nearly stationary clouds resulted in just minor blurring.
Taken ~19 minutes before sunrise.
After some fantastic (not for photography) weather of late Iain and I had to contend with something far more typical for Scotland on a trip to the north west yesterday. The forecast had indicated sunny spells with the low potential of some rain and was pretty much wrong on both counts. We certainly got a good soaking in what turned out to be pretty persistent rain and patches of sunlight were few and far between. However, when we arrived at Loch Stack and the oft photographed bothy, I was pleased to find just enough light and some great clouds to capture this image.

Happy New Year!
Planning to be more organized this year.
I cleaned out some drawers and these are papers that can be discarded, I think I'll use them as scratch papers.
Guess where this was taken?
The Arctic? Nope.
Antarctica? Try again.
Siberia? No, no.
Believe it or not, this is right here in our beautiful state of Utah!
Don’t let chilly temps and gray skies steal three months of your life this winter. Nature doesn’t hit the snooze button just because it’s cold—and neither should you! Bundle up, grab your camera, and let’s go chase the frosty magic together.
2 last minute spots just opened up for our adventure Jan 11-14, 2025!
Of all the shots I exhibit, this is probably the most popular and near oldest.

Just playing around the other morning indoors. I picked a clover flower from the alley and put it in a glass and set up the tripod inside where there was no wind.
The image has been rotated as the flower kind of drooped over the side of the glass. I had run the flower under the tap to try to get some kind of semblance of dew, and took a few shots and the light was not very interesting, so I set up a small LED flashlight an aimed it at the bottom (which is now the right hand side.
The image is a result of 4 different focus settings, then loaded as a stack in photoshop.
I did make a simple selection of the background (which are my burgundy blinds) and darkened it to add a bit more richness to the background.
All in all I am quite pleased with how it turned out. The focus stacking was fun to play with, giving much greater depth of field than would have been possible without.

The Stacked Deck: You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.
A standalone vignette, this creation will be on display at Brickworld Chicago next week. It combines many things I love about Batman the Animated Series, as well as various designs and techniques I’ve used over the years.
Here, we find many of Batman’s villains playing poker, ala 'Almost Got Im’, as well as some character relationships like that of Joker and Harley—apparently Joker is willing to risk his lovely sidekick in a game of poker! The design of the Stacked Deck was a hard one to pull off, and not just because I was so low on pieces that 50% of it is made from 1x1 dark green bricks! The curved roof is something I’ve wanted to do for a long time, and despite the flexibility of the pieces used, it was hard to keep them in place without the building exploding. The creation also features some designs I’ve used before, such as the ceiling fans from my Black Mask creation, and even some hanging fish hooks from way back when. For such a small creation, there are tons of details such as Croc and Bane throwing knives and Penguin standing on a box for a height advantage—oh and of course a Bat cowl hanging on the wall!
This creation is also meant to do more however; I’m currently out of the Lifelites products I desire, but luckily the company will be displaying products at Brickworld. So, once I arrive and get one last LED wire and the batteries (Which are impossible to find in store!), I’ll have one hanging, flickering light over the poker table. Anyways, enjoy online viewers, and those attending will be able to see this spectacular hive of villainy in person!
Enjoy!
Contraption for handheld and fast stacking in the field.
Of course only for insects that are not skittish ....
The support where the insect sits does not have to be cut, but in many cases I cut it off. If the insect doesn't buzz off after cutting, you're likely to have a good chance of getting the stack made.
The left hand (1) holds the specimen (4) and rests on a metal tube (3), recovered from an old tripod, about 27cm long. The metal tube slides neatly over a metal rod (2). The rod (2) is 27cm long, sits about 6.5cm under the camera base, 1cm outside its left side and is firmly fixed under the camera (stuff from Wondlan). A second rod (5) carries a ‘magic arm’ with diffusor (6) over the specimen (absolutely needed in bright sunlight).
Shifting the subject goes as follows: i hold the subject in my left hand, between index and thumb. While shifting the subject through the focal plane, my left hand rests on the sliding tube. So left hand and black tube slide together over rod 2. This helps to gain full control over lateral movements that could destroy the composition. It also helps to make steadier - regular shifts.
It didn't take much exercise and this slider is a great help. However, it does add wheight to the camera, but it's a winner since this method doesn't require the need for much heavier tripods and sliding plate, etcetera.
A small rod (7) is placed under the contraption and serves as monopod (12cm); it gives better support to the camera by resting it on the right knee or any other support available.

Before you start hunting it is best to train all this on a static subject.
It's also good to have all the camera settings right before bringing the subject in front of the lens. Usually camera settings are like this:
a) The camera is set to continuous shooting, the highest frame rate. The more the better. The Sony A6300 (or A6500) has 11fr/sec, the Sony A7R5 has 10fr/sec.
b) while pressing the button, the specimen is shifted through the focal plane. Because of this movement, you need to use shutter priority and set it to at least 1/160sec or even faster (if light allows). You can also use aperture priority, but then keep an eye on the shutter speed, it should be faster than 1/160sec.
c) With the Sony A6300, A6500 or A7R5 an ISO setting between 200 to 400 gives excellent jpegs. I only shift it higher than 100 if necessary, so only when the resulting aperture is too low 2.8
d) in general i try to get an aperture around f5 and exposure compensation at -0,7 to -1.
e) I shoot with the highest jpeg, and i am only interested in stacks with images of 6000x4000px. Usually the A6300's buffer fills up after 60 images. This means that a complete shift/stack with the A6300 needs to be made in less than 5 seconds. Which is perfectly possible. With the A6500 or A7R5 this is not a problem, the buffer is big enough.
f) So far I have used this technique with the Canon's 100mm & 60mm macro, and also with Sony's FE90mm macro and the Laowa 65mm f/2.8 2X macro APO.

Stacked [Whatever] Block. I say [Whatever] because it could be so many different things. Bolts of fabric, books, bricks... Of course turning it sideways gives you a whole slew of new choices! You can read more and find the tutorial to download over here.
South Stack (Welsh: Ynys Lawd) is an island situated just off Holy Island on the North West coast of Anglesey. It is famous as the location of one of Wales' most spectacular lighthouses.
When the weather is clear you can make out Ireland as well as the Isle of Man.
The stacks off the coast of Vik in southern Iceland are very picturesque. I used a big zoom to try to capture the power of the massive waves breaking on the beach.
