Multistitch focus stacked image of the flora at Asilomar with Spanish Bay in the background. This image is comprised of 11 images from a Phase One XF with 100 MP IQ 3 100 focus stacked using Helicon Focus and post processed in Capture One and Photoshop.
Much to my suprise there were some dewdrops around this morning. Tried shooting some at 4:1.

This setup uses a home-made "gorillazilla" (see John Hallmen) holding the subject, plus two shoot-through flags made of translucent opalux (think rigid tracing paper). Two flashes shoot through the flags from above-left-front and below-right-rear.
Pinehills is a planned development in southeastern Massachusetts where there was nothing on the 3000+ acres before Digital Equipment Corporation, DEC, considered moving from Maynard to Plymouth, headquarters and production. When the deal fell through, the result is one of the largest master-planned communities in the state.
Unfortunately, the primarily pitch pine, scrub oak vegetation is stripped to build homes and associated roads. More than 20 years later, many road sides have had "weeds" or non-native invasives move in.
Mother nature will win. Even when it does not really "belong" in the area, sometimes it is pretty.
(hand-held, 10 image focus stack)
This is indeed a saint paulia. The flower itself is not big and this is a closeup of its center. The image is focus stacked and consists of 39 images.

Materials from a school project in Evesham. Photos taken by students through the town and along the river were merged using the Focus Stacking tools in Photoshop. They were then printed out for use in a giant collage.
One more from the Three Shires Head trip, looking downstream of the Dane into the mist with a very characterful tree poking out of the dale wall on the right.
I am not going to be able to resist a monochrome version of this, am I?
This is a handheld nine shot focus bracket merged in Photoshop. The Olympus E-M1 Mk ll's image stabilization is good enough and it fires fast enough to do this, though the implementation of shot spacing and number of shots needs to be rethought by Olympus's engineers. Currently they allow you to enter the number of shots and a number that is vaguely related to shot spacing. You then select the closest point you want in focus and fire away, hoping you have guessed right. This one came out alright. Others have not. If you change the lens, the f stop, the subject, the distance etc, you have to start over again. The camera has enough info to calculate depth of field. It would seem that a better scheme would be to focus on the near and far locations and let the camera figure out the shots. It's not complicated math. It was all worked out on slide rules a hundred years ago.
