We passed these three stacked trucks on the interstate. They looked like they were mating. I thought it was pretty weird
First test with focus stacking. Only now learned that this is a viable method for creating cool macro shots (amongs others) and wanted to give this a try.
This is composed of 6 shots, using Helicon Focus (www.heliconsoft.com/heliconfocus.html), which has a free 30 day trial. Very easy to use.
As you can see there's still some spots that are blurry, which I think means I need more shots. Learning is fun!
After the ice storm which hit Missouri, Oklahoma, Arkansas and Kentucky this January, thousands of trees were left limbless, with layers and layers or branches distributed across the ground. Some branches were cut up into firewood.

You can see the five level of the lignite open pit with the stacker in foreground.

1st attempt at a stacked timelapse image folks a bit of mucking around but definitely a viable way of doing these shots.... :-)
South Stack is famous as the location of one of Wales' most spectacular lighthouses, South Stack Lighthouse. It has a height of 41 metres (135 feet). It has a maximum area of 7 acres.
Until 1828 when an iron suspension bridge was built, the only means of crossing the deep water channel on to the island was in a basket which was suspended on a hemp cable. The suspension bridge was replaced in 1964, but by 1983 the bridge had to be closed to the public, due to safety reasons. A new aluminium bridge was built and the lighthouse was reopened for public visits in 1997. Thousands of people flock to the lighthouse every year, thanks to the continued public transport service from Holyhead's town centre.
There are over 400 stone steps down to the footbridge (and not, as local legend suggests, 365), and the descent and ascent provide an opportunity to see some of the 4,000 nesting birds that line the cliffs during the breeding season. The cliffs are part of the RSPB South Stack Cliffs bird reserve, based at Elin's Tower.
The Anglesey Coastal Path passes South Stack, as does the Cybi Circular Walk. The latter has long and short variants; the short walk is 4 miles long and takes around two hours to complete. Travelling from the Breakwater Country Park, other sites along the way are the North Stack Fog Signal station, Caer y Tŵr, Holyhead Mountain and Tŷ Mawr Hut Circles.
I tried focus stacking for the first time this weekend - used PS to blend the layers and come up with the composite image
For those not familiar with the concept, you take a number of images of the same subject with different focus points, then combine them into one where the subject apears much clearer.
It's useful in macro shots where the depth of field can be so shallow that just portions of your subjects end up in focus.
I could have used a lower aperture, but I wanted to be able to see the difference in the processed image.

In this case it is a stacked picture of an insect that has sucked itself to a leaf. I spotted it a few days ago and it is totally motionless.
I took 1263 shots (with an automatic macro rail) and stacked it with Helicon Focus. In post bit color correction in Lightroom.
Rainroom by RedBlackProduction
Heya!
I had the idea recently of doing a Rainmeter theme based on Lightroom, as I really like the look of it's user interface. As I'm starting to get the hang of Rainmeter I feel compelled to add more and more information as I pick up bits and pieces! Bars and meters everywhere!!!! More functionality!!! At the same time I don't really like a cluttered look and I don't particularly want RSS feeds clamouring for my attention all the time . . So I thought maybe I could create a modular set of docks and have some buttons to switch them in and out as needed.
I've been using this setup for a while now and am really enjoying it's functionality, especially combined with Launchy, Standalone Stacks and CD Art Display. This is Rainroom in full flight, with all the modules active . . .
. . The black outer frame is always on and is meant to fade from the windows taskbar at the to the slightly transparent black at the bottom. On the bottom left is the module controller, in the center is currently a very familiar looking clock setup which is flanked by two small docks. These docks contain the folders I access 99% of the time! Left click opens the folder in explorer while right click launches a Standalone Stack. To the bottom right is a little Twitter input box! Utilising SendTweet by the talented Mr JSMorley, when it's clicked on it turns opaque and offers a text input for tweet tweet tweeting away . . . and it fits in seamlessly! I was thinking of using Taskkill.exe and making that little button on the bottom bottom right right kill Raininput, acting as a 'cancel tweet' button [for when I'm too lazy to use the keyboard :]
On the inner left is the CAD cradle module, ToDo list module [controlled by launchy :], and . . . well, something that wasn't finished in this sceenshot . . a Task Launcher module for a couple of tasks I run regularly: system maintenance scan, defrag, backup flash drive contents to pre-designated folder on hard drive etc.
On the inner right is the System Performance module, RSS reader module utilising a combined feed of my personal faves, Drives module incorporating histogram, activity lights and drive launcher, and finally a Twitter feed module . . .
The path is at South Stack, and leads down from the car park to the RSPB bird watch hut. The RSPB site is open in the summer for free access, and you can use their good quality binoculars to view the nesting birds. In the summer you can also access the lighthouse and Island for a small fee. Cafe open in the summer. This picture was taken in Feb, so very few people around and everything was closed.
We like thick layers when we 3D-print!
We 3D-modelled a candy bowl and a stackable box to test 3D-printing objects using thick layers. Normally the diameter of a 3D-printer’s nozzle is 0.4 mm. We drilled this bore up to 1.0 mm - which allowed for more plastic flow and thicker layers.
The results are stronger objects and also an exaggeration of the step features of the layers. Surface smoothness is not so relevant for many objects and by making thick layers they can become a nice feature - specially for decorative.
You can download the STL files for our candy bowl and stacking box below.
I'm having a great time with the leftover stacked fabrics! I'm going to try the five in the picture on the lower right, using the ten degree ruler. The five quilt tops shown are the ones I used these fabrics in originally.
