Bug about 5mm long. On my car as usual :)

Stayed still long enough to allow me a 3 shot focus stack

They always seem to be looking at you when take pics of them- think it's even smiling :) Body length about 8mm. Focus stacked from 2 pics. Taken around 1:1

Some sort of seed head - not sure what - picked it up on a recent walk

focusstacking

Getting the most out of my Valentine's flowers and practicing macro/focus stacking. I think my eyes must be going bad because manual focus is so hard for me. This is from five images with camera on a tripod and I still missed in spots. Its a work in progress ;-)

First tries at focus stacking.

When we moved in to our house our friends brought us this plant as a house warming gift. I have no idea what its called but it has these interesting flowers every so often. I tried focus stacking with 7 images - not entirely successful but it was fun!

40x objective, NA 0.65 plus 2.5x relay lens to Canon T2i

captured as HD Video and then focus stacked.

Scale ~8.7 pixels per micron.

Theoretical resolution should be ~0.5 microns

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.

28 images taken with 50D and MP-E 65mm at 3x using 0.12mm steps with a Cognisys StackShot and stacked in Zerene Stacker. Lit with MT-24EX @ 1/32 with diffusion gels.

I shot 16 images, each focused at a slightly different point, and then focus stacked these within Photoshop.

I love this Pleurothallid from the Ecuadorian cloud forest! The elegant non-resupinate flowers with a slightly cupped synsepal (not really visible here) and the long, thin leaves were very striking to me. This is my best guess at an identification based on similar plants seen nearby, but I would hardly ever say I'm 100% certain of my own Pleurothallid ID!

The color of this species seems to vary from this light yellow to a dark red, with many forms showing a mix of red, orange, and yellow in different flower parts. Orangey red forms seem the most common from photos I found of wild plants.

Seen in a reserve whose name I forget near the town of Papallacta, Ecuador. Focus stack of eight photos.

Amaryllis (hippeastrum) are quite spectacular and are also a great subject for experimenting on photographically, in this case with focus stacking using flash. They are large enough to prevent everything being in focus at once with a single exposure, so a stacked result is very beneficial.

Bush Honeysuckle (Diervilla) flower stigma and anthers. 26 images taken with 50D and MP-E 65mm at 3x using 0.12mm steps with a Cognisys StackShot and stacked in Zerene Stacker. Lit with MT-24EX @ 1/32 with diffusion gels.
