Photography information:
The images in this database were captured using the Macropod by Macroscopic Solutions.
The Macropod is a 3D, rigid, portable photomacrography system that is paired with the Canon 6D, MP-E 65 mm 1-5x or 100 mm lenses.
Images between 7.5x and 50x magnifications are achieved by replacing the MP-E 65 MM 1-5x (and various ext. tubes) with a Nikon BD Plan 40 Objective, chipped adapter and series of M42 extension tubes and adapters.

I caught a decent sunset at Morton Bay, with 2 layers of clouds moving different directions.
I made this time stack by combining 159 photos into one image.
Here's the last sunset I shot in 2016.

A little different than my usual sunset time stack, but not because I did anything drastically differently. Instead of the usual streaks of clouds in the sky, this one seems a little more random because there were two layers of clouds. The colourful clouds were behind the much quicker moving dark clouds, and as the dark clouds moved across the scene, they would block parts of the colourful clouds, creating breaks in the streaks.

I was excited about the Cumulonimbus clouds in the distance catching the last rays of sun light before they disappeared for the night, and then a little disappointed that some clouds in the foreground covered them up during the timelapse. There were some breaks in the gray foreground clouds that showed parts of the colourful clouds behind them, and when I stacked this timelapse it created an interesting effect.
Since the colourful clouds were covered at different times during the sunset, you can see 3 parts of the same cloud at different times. The top was showing near the beginning, when the light was more yellow, and the bottom was showing near the end, when mostly red light was hitting it.
I made this one with 201 photos.
From back in June. It was a bright night with a nearly full moon. This composite photo is 537 10-second exposures capturing fireflies in Floyd, VA with Tackyshack.
This was my last day in Newfoundland, and I was lucky to wake up to an awesome sunrise. I really wanted to go back to sleep, because I had a few hours before I had to leave to catch the ferry, but the main reason I went on this trip was for photography, so I bit the bullet and did the timelapse. It was worth it!
This is 268 photos merged into one image using the lighten layer-blending mode in photoshop, automated with this script advancedstacker.com I also stacked them in reverse order by renaming the photos with Adobe Bridge (as Steven describes on his website starcircleacademy.com)
I found this old male jumping spider in the wild field last weekend. Usually, when the day is sunny and warm you can found a lot of these creatures in the dry grass.
This jumping spider was about 7-8mm in size (Not too big and not too small for me...)
He was pretty slow so I was able to do some photographs, but after these shots he jumped out into the grass somewhere...
These species of jumping spiders usually have big green eyes, but of course there is some exceptions like you can see in the third photo...
This image is focus stacked of 2 images taken at F8 with a Pentax 28mm lens reversed on some extension tubes...
Please have a view of full size photo to see better quality (must see):

I hope you will like it...
Thanks :)

Seven shots of the moon rising, illuminating the trees along the horizon then disappearing into the clouds.
Serious photostacking, but no shooting stars captured. Thought this would be a good idea, but did not work out.
This big tree caught my attention when I was looking for a place to shoot a timelapse of the sunset. It looks like the oldest in this line of trees that separates two fields.
I made this time stack by combining 171 photos into one image.
180 photos merged into one image using CC Time Blend FX in After Effects. The reason I used After Effects and not Photoshop (what I usually use) to blend the photos together is because I had a fair bit of camera shake from wind. I used After Effects to stabilize the timelapse first, then I used the CC Time Blend FX to save time. (exporting each frame would have taken a while and the end result would be the same) Notice the sun pillar, it was there for the whole timelapse. I might upload a single frame so you can see the sun pillar better.

A nice mix of star trails, cirrus clouds and mist during the moon rise.
I only used 58 photos to make this image, because the moon light got too bright later in the timelapse, which would wash out a lot of the interesting details in this version using fewer frames.
305 photos merged into one image, cropped and digitally mirrored. I wasn't very impressed with this time stack, so I played around with some mirroring. I think it made it a little more interesting.
139 photos of the sunset merged into one image. The clouds were moving a little faster than I'd like, making the streaks they painted in the sky a little rough. I prefer smoother streaks, which can be achieved with a shorter interval between shots, but I would have to switch to JPEG format instead of RAW, and I don't really want to do that.
I wish they would make the image writing buffer larger.

20201122_8468_7D2-70 UP through the desert
A nine-shot photo stack of Robin Scanes' desert module at the weekend's Christchurch Free-mo event. HO scale.
There was a mat black wall a couple of feet behind the layout module and that is the background. Probably a little too dark but I haven't got the time to play around with it any more!

Photography information: All of the images in this database were captured with the Macropod.
The Macropod is a rigid, portable photomacrography system, which allows the user to make razor sharp, fully focused photographs of small sized specimens at 18 to 26-megapixel resolution. It overcomes the extreme Depth of Field (DOF) limitations inherent in optics designed to image smaller specimens. Normally, lenses designed for macro will only render a very small fraction of the depth of targeted specimen in sharp focus at any one exposure. The Macropod allows the user to select and make multiple exposures in precise increments along the Z-axis (depth) such that each exposure’s area of sharp focus overlaps with the previous and next exposure. These source images are then transferred to a computer and merged by an image-stacking program. Zerene Stacker is used to find and stitch together only the focused pixels from each exposure into one image. The Macropod integrates industry-leading components in a novel and elegant way to achieve these results.

Here is a photo from Buttonwood Farm in Griswold Conn. April and I made the 4 hour drive out there to see the flowers. This year we decided to stay the night in Rhode Island and visit some lighthouses near Jamestown. We got to see the lighthouses we wanted to but the lighting was crappy so nothing really worth while, but sometimes just being away sitting by the ocean listening to the waves crash is just what the doctor ordered.
243 photos merged into one image via the lighten blending mode in photoshop. The moon rising, illuminating the trees along the horizon.
It consists of 6 images with a slightly different focus getting a better dof of the topmost bean.
Strobist: Yongnuo YN560-II, camera right, 1/4 power, CTO. White paper camera left.
We recently got hit with a lot of rain and the water levels have been higher than I've ever seen them. I saw these pools of water in the field and thought they'd make good mirrors to reflect the sky and add some interest to the foreground. I got set up just in time to catch the end of the sunset.
I made this time stack by combining 151 photos into one image.

289 photos merged into one image using the lighten layer-blending mode in photoshop. As the stars spin through the night, a few planes and Perseid Meteors go against the grain. Check out the timelapse video... www.youtube.com/watch?v=nAF4MNSgmiw
