396 photos merged into one image using the lighten blending mode in photoshop. I think this one pretty much covers the colour spectrum of sunsets, lacking only the darker reds. I can't get enough of this technique!
A damning indictment on the cleanliness of my cooker hob, but nevertheless provided the speckled object I needed for this week’s Macro Monday theme. A 9-image stack, blended in Photoshop, natural light. HMM!
Christella dentata. I find the unfurling of a new frond magical.

This is a stack of 56 photos to get 27 minutes of star trails. I plan on doing at least 3 hours of star trails in the Spring when the North Star is a little lower in the sky and I can line it up with the bridge better. Now if I could convince all the air traffic and satellites to stay out of the sky during that time so I wouldn’t have to spend so much time cloning them out. Processed with ON1 Photo Raw, and image stacked and finishing in Affinity Photo.
Bois du Breuil, Forest of Breuil. A rich forest, part of the commune of Équemauville and overlooking the communes (towns/villages) of Honfleur, Vasouy and Pennedepie as well as the River Seine. It belonged to the Dukes of Normandy until 1204 when King Philippe Auguste conquered Normandy and the forest passed to the French kings. Located 4km from Honfleur, the Bois du Breuil is one of the rare forests on the coastline and is open to the public. This forest, covering 120 hectares, is the property of the Conservatoire du Littoral (Coastal Conservancy). Great variety of species (32 listed species including oak, beech, Scots pine and maritime pine), a fine population of naturalised rhododendrons, large 1,200m path lined with beech trees dating from 1850. Preserved natural wealth thanks to meticulous management in keeping with nature. Access via the RD62 (Equemauville-Pennedepie road). 2 car parks. Round trip, approximately 5km, offering superb views over the Seine bay. www.conservatoire-du-littoral.fr/siteLittoral/115/28-bois... and www.calvados-tourisme.co.uk/diffusio/en/discover/natural-...
Sunrise Arch is an underrated, and probably under-visited arch. It sits on it's own in the middle of nowhere Grand Staircase Escalante. I expected to have the place to myself, as I had to drive down the horribly washboarded Hole-In-the-Rock road about 40 miles, just to start my mile and a half hike down into the desert plain.
I arrived just in time to setup and start to immediately have some really great light. As I approach 2 photographers were already setup and shooting., Ended up both guys were cool and we had a nice chat as we shot. We were presented with a great sunset with clouds lighting up great for us. I took this, with the recommendation of one of the photographers I was with, after sunset, using my circular polarizer. They took off but I stuck around for a few more shots. This one is from those last few shots I took.
Final photo is a stack of 5 exposures, blended with LR hdr processing. My first time using that process, and I must say I like the results. I'll be comparing it with Photomatix with same shots soon.

This is 376 photos merged into one image using the lighten layer-blending mode in photoshop, automated with this script, advancedstacker.com
I also faded in the first 19 photos using 5% increments of the layer opacity.
Next up is the time slice photo (maybe a few different versions) I'll add a link to the timelapse video in the description.
Cumulonimbus clouds bubble up like slow motion explosions and fall once they lose energy and cool down.
I made this time stack image with 348 photos.
I made this image from 10 photos. I adjusted each frame, aligning the stars then cutting out each meteor to keep the radiant in the same place. (the radiant is the point in the sky where the meteors appear to come from, it moves with the stars throughout the night because of Earths rotation) One of the shots had 2 meteors, so there are 11 meteors in total. I shot this on the night of the 10th, into the early morning. The peak is coming in the next few days. I'm hoping for clear skies, though tonight (the 11th) isn't looking too promising.
This was another one of those times when I looked like there was going to be a good sunset, but I couldn't find a decent place to shoot. After a few failed attempts, I settled with this spot that had a mostly clear view of the ocean. The sunset did not disappoint.
This is 137 long exposures (5 seconds) combined into one image using the lighten layer-blending mode in photoshop. I processed the first 12 shots with the "short comet" preset as well as the rest of the stacking with this script. advancedstacker.com
I was driving home one day and I noticed I was driving into a storm. I was excited because I love storms, and this one had some awesome cloud action. My only worry was that I left my camera at home and I was afraid I might miss the show. When I got home I set up a timelapse as quick as I could. I managed to get 320 photos, but unfortunately my camera got rained on a little about half way through. This is 158 photos merged into one image using the lighten layer-blending mode in photoshop.
Our Daily Challenge: Have you tried.......HeliconFocus?
I have been experimenting with photo stacking, and I came across. an image that just didn't work in Photoshop. I had 45 images stacked, auto aligned and auto blended in Photoshop and each time I got a weird blue cast and blown out area in the final image. I checked all 45 of the original images, and they were fine. It had to be user error, but each time I tried tweaking my process, I failed. A little Google search brought me to a new program "HeliconFocus". It is much faster than Photoshop and creates a better result. I am using the trial version and tried it again on this image. I like the results so far.
Thank you so much for your views, comments and favs. I really do appreciate every one!

I think this might be the first time I tried my GND filter. (graduated neutral density filter) I bought 2 of them and I think I used them both for this timelapse, which is why the field is so bright.
I probably should have bought one long ago, since my main focus is landscape timelapse photography. I think it's a much better solution than blending different exposures, especially for timelapse video purposes.
This is 319 photos merged into one image using the lighten layer-blending mode in photoshop. I merged the first 26 photos from the timelapse using the comets preset from this script advancedstacker.com
Well, given we're into Winter I don't think we'll be seeing any blue birds but one can dream a bit. Hummel figurine, "Signs of Spring", was passed down by Marybeth's mom and we have quite a collection (of course they don't get dusted too often). I took a few shots with limited DoF but when I looked at the shots I knew what I wanted and what I didn't want. It took another 3 series to get to this set which is a 12 image photo stack made with my 55mm f/2.8 NIKKOR Micro and south facing defused sunlight against a green paper backdrop. The photographed area measures about 2.25 in X 2.25 in. and the depth is about 1.375 in. I know there is always a lot of discussion when it comes to dust and you should have seen the first set with only a casual dusting. After a bath and liberal use of compressed air spray I got it pretty clean. The lower portion of the dress and fence had some technical stitching/blending issues and that's why I added the texture. It's a good way to cover some mistakes. Take a look at the catch light painted into the eye, seems to be a six sided circular light source???
Thanks to Lenabem-Anna and PaintedWorksByKB for the textures.

This is version 2. Version 1 (see previous photo) was made with 243 photos.
I made this version with 154 photos. They were taken from the end of the timelapse, showing the last part of the sunset.
20201108_7118_7D2-50 Containers (or boxes)
A container yard scene, staged on my glorified HO scale test track model railroad module.
In shipping terms, containers are often referred to as "boxes" and that is the subject of this week's Crazy Tuesday theme "box or boxes".
And as they are here they are just small plastic boxes!
This is a nine-shot focus stack, initially processed in Lightroom and stacked in Photoshop.

My knees in a bog and hand-holding for a 5 image photostack is not the ideal way to take pics but these wasp spiders are so special. This is the dorsal aspect.
The night before the peak of the Perseid meteor shower, there where quite a few small meteors. I set up a timelapse but I forgot my lens heater so the lens fogged up almost right away. I did catch some meteors though, they're just really blurry, along with the rest of the image.
The first night of the peak was completely overcast all night. (I stayed up until 4am checking the sky every so often)
The second night of the peak was also cloudy, but there was a break in the clouds around 2am, and I managed to catch a bunch of meteors before the the sun washed out the sky.
I saw the brightest meteor through some tress, but what really caught my attention was how it lit up the trees and the fields in the distance. (the camera didn't pick that up)
I brightened some of the meteors because there wasn't a lot of contrast between them and the sky. (this is mainly because of my camera settings, I should have turned up the iso and made the exposes faster... next time!)
A photo-stack of the emerging flowers of a small hybrid Serruria or spiderhead sold as 'Miss Muffet'. Serruria is a South African genus in the protea family that occur in fynbos vegetation. This one is a prostrate plant growing its sprawling branches across the ground, with flower produced in spring on the branch tips. The opening flowers shown here are around 15 mm across. A stack of 70 images combined using Zerene Stacker.
Playing around with possible images for next week's Macro Monday challenge - Hand Tools.
A set of old shoemakers lasting pliers that my father had for many years. This view is approximately 22-23mm across.
Thirteen shots at f/8 stacked in photoshop.
Diffused light from a skylight above only.
I was happy to find myself in a beautiful place (Bennett Lake, Fundy National Park, New Brunswick) at the right time (during sunset) with great conditions (colourful clouds and a calm lake) For this one I stacked the first 136 photos with the ultra streaks mode (with this script advancedstacker.com) and then I stacked the rest (335 photos) with the lighten layer-blending mode and combined the two stacks. That gave a fade in effect and allowed more of the end of the timelapse to show through.
