Eastbound CSX train I016 passes a frozen landscape on its way through Rockwood, PA. In a few miles, they'll be digging deep into the climb up the west slope of Sand Patch Grade.
This Stack of Mini Dominoes is almost 40mm Cubed, it was Cropped Square in Photoshop, and converted to Back and White using the Channel Mixer............Oh it floats with a touch of Levitation !!
we got two cords of wood delivered to finish out this rainy season and to take us into the next. the wood stove is our only source of heat except for some portable heaters in really cold areas in the house during the winter.
leon has been stacking for days. I helped him with 2 cart loads, into the cart and then onto the wood pile. it hurts my back, but I can do a little at a time. it's good for me.

South Stack from Holyhead Mountain..
For the last night of my stay I stopped on a campsite very close to South Stack. It's a great site with 200ft sheer cliffs, very clean and close to Trearddur Bay and the beautiful beach at Porth Dafarch, with spectacular views over to the mountains of Snowdonia and the Llŷn Peninsula. The last of the colour in the heather is just about hanging on but the chill in the air up here was noticeable. Autumn is definitely on the way.
However....South Stack is a lighthouse and that can only mean one thing....Yup, Adrian had 'Lifted' going through his head for the next two days.
Damn you The Lighthouse Family.
Personal critique - a bit like most of my school reports “ Could do better” Excuse, not done many stacks. Lots to learn.
Lewis and Harris. Mangersta Rock Stacks, which I was desperate to return to. Pity tho, it was so windy and squally, showery, it was only possible to take mobile phone snaps. The stormy weather certainly made for dramatic seas. This is one angle, but tho you can walk out onto the point, had to return and do that another day, as the winds were so fierce, it wouldn't have been safe.
Focus stacking – a new era
It turns out that the FL-LM3 lamp can be used for focus stacking, which in the Olympus system is added as an accessory to the E-M1 Mark II. Basically, this lamp lies unused by all photographers who want to have "real" large reportage lamps.
I have been running a project called "macro photography" for some time now and I am trying to understand what is most important in it. In this first photo I want to prove that you don't have to buy a large reporter lamp, the FL-LM3 lamp with a low guide number (9 m) is enough. The first important lesson is to get as much detail as possible with as few shadows as possible in macro photography. The key is soft light, which depends on the reflecting surface (reflector) and on the gain, direction and distance of the flash in relation to the size of the photographed object. The larger the surface of the reflector in relation to the size of the photographed object, the softer the incident light. You should also make sure that it falls from different directions in order to "destroy" the shadows with the light falling from a different direction - this can be achieved with the shape of an ew reflector - using lower backlight from a diffuser.
I called my starting macro setup "Akocot Diffusor 0.0" (with a 12-40 lens) - the photos below show it. The reflector and reflector are a cosmetics bottle cut out for the FL-LM3 lamp. I specifically used a low sensitivity of ISO 64 and a large aperture of f10.0 and the maximum flash of the lamp (I also did equally good tests for ISO 200, f/10 and 1/32 of the lamp power), the photo is in JPG format, a file created directly in the camera body with 15 photos.
I am currently working on a diffuser that will ultimately work with the M.Zuiko 60 mm ED f/2.8 lens + Raynox DCR-250 + FL-LM3 lamp - I think I will show the effects of such a combination soon. The diffuser being developed will be called "AKocot Diffusor 1.0" and is dedicated to the body + lens + lamp system - it contains all the best solutions used in diffusers such as Cygnustech Diffusor, AK Diffusor, Pope Shield, Radiant and many other DIY.
I plan to continue and develop this project in the coming months, when there are few good weather days for landscape sessions. I think it's a good idea .
Another of the cooperative subjects at Red Moss Nature Reserve. Fortunate to get a series of bracketed images before it flew off. This is 30 images focus bracketed in camera then focus stacked in Helicon Focus Pro.
A stack of hearts for you...
Uploaded for the theme "Stacked" in "Looking close... on Friday!".
Using the Helios 44-2 2/58 Soviet lens (from 1975).
Critique is welcomed.
Thank you all very much for your visits, favs and comments.
Taken just before the sky erupted in red yesterday. I was delighted by the "stacked" appearance directly above the dark cloud that cried snowflakes.
Double stacks on UP ZLAMQ 16 head east under the SP signal cantilever at Wellton, AZ as the sun sets below the horizon.
Cool little yellow Isopod that I found under an old rotten log. It was probably about 3mm long. Photographed in Maryland.
7 image focus stack of 2 to 1 magnification photos, taken with the camera hand held. Canon 80D, Canon 65mm MPE macro lens, Canon twin macro flash. Aperture f/11, shutter speed 1/250, ISO 400, flash power set to 1/32
Still playing with Zerene stacker - this image is made of 45 stacked images takenwith a focusing rail - still haven't quite gotten the hang of the cleanup process but I'm getting there. Any helpful tips from other Zerene users welcome!
