Stacked chairs used to provide bleacher on recently concluded cultural show in City of Doha. Found it interesting to see its uniformity in a well aligned formation, with its rich yellow color.
1. WeMacro Focus Rail
Canon MP-E 65mm - Canon 80D - Yonguno YN24EX - f5.6 - 193 micron units - 21 stack
The WeMacro Focus Rail offers the finest degree of control. The lowest increment can be as low as 1 micron. Although this degree of control may be needed for magnifications of x10+ - for insects at 5x - 62 microns is ample. WeMacro provides a very useful DOF Estimates For Macro Chart. Using this method one sets the depth of field step size based on aperture and magnification. I just looked it up on the DOF Estimate for Macro Chart. For example, on an APS-C sensor using f5.6 at 2x magnification 193 micron step sizes are recommended.
Pros: Offers the greatest degree of control and maximum magnification - an incredible 1 micron
Cons: Heavy - great for studio but not to so practical for field stacking
2. Novaflex Castel Q Focus Rail
Olympus Zuiko 60mm - Olympus STF-8 - f5.6 - quarter mm increments - 16 stack
There is always the good old fashioned way of manually stacking using a focus rail. Although much slower than using an automated method it does provide the satisfaction of being able to see the focus with each turn of the focus knob. With care and attention manual focus stacking can be suitable for maximum magnifications of 5x.
Pros: Area of focus can be clearly seen on-the-fly and with each turn of the focus knob.
Cons: Slow - by the time the stack is completed there’s a good chance the subject will have lost patience and moved
3. Olympus E-M1 in Camera Stacking — Olympus Zuiko 60mm - Raynox dcr-250 - Olympus STF-8 f.5.6 - Differential 8 - 8 stack
By far the quickest method and great for taking stacks in the filed. The camera generates 8 jgs and from these a final RAW composite is made. Alternatively one can bracket up to 99 images and have these imported into stacking software, such as Zerene Stacker. The main drawback of this method is that you have to estimate the focus point by setting a ‘differential’ between 1 - 10. 1 represents the smallest of increments and 10 the largest.
4. Olympus E-M1 in Camera Stacking — Raynox dcr-250 - Olympus Zuiko 60mm - Olympus STF-8 f.5.6 - Differential 2 - 8 stack
As can be seen, a diff of 8 provides substantially more depth of field than a diff of 2 (where only the mouth parts of the dragonfly exuviae are clearly in focus
Pros: The lightest and quickest method of all. Great for stacking in the field.
Olympus E-M1 with Olympus Zuiko 60mm lens and STF-8 twin flash weigh just under 1 kilo. Compare this to my Canon 5D and Yonguno YN24EX on Canon Speedlite Bracket SB-E2 weighing in at a whacking 3 and a half kilos!
Cons: The amount of focus increments needs to be approximated from a differential of 1 - 10. One can’t set the focus starting and ending points as with the WeMacro Focus Rail nor see what’s in and out of focus - as with manual stacking.

The silhouette of the small stacked rocks reminds me so much of something, but I'm not sure what. A nativity scene? A Picasso painting?
Juicy & delicious watermelon, all eaten, nothing was left but the skins, so I thought I'd
stack them!
My twist on this instructables: www.instructables.com/id/EJ9IHYEX77ES9J44DR/
I got these glass boxes at the Container Store which stack up. I thought it would be cool for the each box to recharge the batteries of the box underneath it. It's like recycling light!

From the Stacks Series. Plotted on an HP7475 pen plotter and water colored by hand. Generative designs from custom OpenFrameworks software.
A crew from Dogsthorpe was called to a stack fire at a farm in Middle Road, Newborough.
Approximately 10 tonnes of baled straw was well alight and had spread to wooden pallets and trees.
Firefighters used hose reels and jets to contain and control the fire and a farmer with a teleporter assisted by removing wooden pallets.
At 9am the incident was handed back to the farmer and fire crews will return to inspect the stack.
The crew returned to station by 9.15am.
The cause of the fire was deliberate.

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.
