Eggs, a very banal subject for testing my new toy (Sony 90mm f2.8 macro) ,and focus stacking which is cruelly absent from my Alpha 7M4. I tried a macro focusing rail which seems to work, but it is a return to the past compared to my old olympus gear
E-M1 focus bracketing, 25 files, step 2
All files developed and finished in Capture One before stacking.
Cross-eye stereogram. shot at 3.4:1 each pic focus stacked from 2 shots. Think it's responsible for all the mess.
Cross-eye stereogram each pic focus stacked from 3 shots. See www.flickr.com/photos/lordv/106750574/ for a 2-D version
Multiple differently focussed shots taken on the iPhone with a Moment Macro lens and then focus stacked in Photoshop on the pC.
Roses. Focus stack of 101 images taken in Helicon Remote and merged in Helicon Focus. Processed in Adobe Lightroom CC Classic and ON1 Photo Raw 2018 Beta 3 Effects Dynamic Contrast
This is a fairly technical image. It was done using cross polarisation. Light from a flash is unpolarised so a polarising filter has no effect . The cross polarisation technique involves placing a sheet of polarising film between the flash and the subject. The polarising filter on the lens can then function in its usual way.
The result is less reflection and more saturated colour. I found the colour saturation to be too much (it looked a bit artificial) and I have slightly desaturated this example.
This was my first attempt. I think it has potential. It is requires quite a lot of light and I had my flashes cranked up to the "melts bitumen" setting to keep a low ISO and a small aperture.
I also used focus stacking - a series of 12 photos were taken . After each shot, the focus was slightly adjusted. The photos were then merged to give a composite in which all the fruit are in focus.
