This is a focus stack (13 images) of what I think is some sort of coral fungus. Anyone know what it is exactly? It was in a woodland on a felled Beech tree. The width of the image is about 5cm. Have a look at the other photos in the set for the more general views.
Update: 15-9-10. Thanks to Malcolm Storey from my local Natural History Society in Reading I now know that the fungus is a Coral Tooth (Hericium coralloides). Thanks Malcolm.
Although I'm not certain of the identity of this species, this section of the giant genus Dendrobium all have flowers that bloom intermittently throughout the year for only up to a couple days! This flower was open for about 1.5 days.
I estimate the flower is about 1 inch (2.5 cm) across from top to bottom. Photographed in personal collection.

Came out just in time for Christmas :)
Compare this focus stacked 2 megapixel image with this gigapan made up of 352 images, each a focus stack of 18 megapixel images.
Also look at this gigapan of a one euro coin:
It looks like the Microscope optics don't provide 18 megapixels of information, at all. This image was made by taking a video while moving the focus knob through the complete range of focus, and then splitting the individual frames out of the video and using focus stacking software to focus stack the resulting frames.

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.
A bit of a technical exercise in focus stacking.
Today I learned that the focus stacking tool relies heavily on lens profiles, and don't cope well when extension tubes and/or teleconverters are used as well.
I need to work on my lighting a it for these macros too.
