Macro isn't really my thing. Photoshop isn't really my thing either. But it was fun to learn something new for this week's challenge. This is a focus stack blend of six photos, each at a slightly different manual focus from front to back.
Focus stacking: 4 images.
Location: Blockhouse Point Park, Montgomery County, MD.
M. uniflora is a flowering plant devoid of chlorophyll. It survives by parasitizing fungi, commonly a small range of l hosts that are members of Russulaceae.
I wanted to try this technique for a while now. This is a combination of four different images. I focused on a different spot for each one, then merged them in photoshop pretty much the same way you do a pano.. It's all automated.. It's pretty cool, but it did come out a little goofy... Here is a video tutorial that I followed
View This Damn Huge to see the goofiness.

An experiment from a week or so ago. I took 5 shots, manual focus of this scene and stacked it so the woods in the back round would be in focus.
I think it worked out well.

First posting with new camera, new software and new technique.
The flower was rescued from garage that is used to winter some of our flowers. Not bad for January in Minnesota.
TMI Section:
I used focus stacking software, Helicon to stack 20 images to get extended depth of field. I am happy with the results with one major exception. It appears that I did not start the series close enough to the camera; the front of the vase is not just out of focus it is all muddy.
On the image right out of Helicon before it was reduced for Flickr, cat hair can be seen in the foreground and background on the sheepskin.
