During the early days of my South Bay photography, Cargill’s Newark salt plant and its surrounding crystallizer beds appeared on my map as terra incognita. From the beginning, I wanted to photograph Cargill’s facility, both for its colorful nature and its role as the last truly active salt plant in the Bay Area. The plant, originating as Arden Salt Works #2 in the 1920s, has long provided the distinctive sight of stacked salt on the edge of the former wetlands. In the current day, an annual harvest of around 500,000 tons is added to the twin mounds of salt that are 500 feet long and 75 feet high. It is a striking landmark.
In 2010, after several years of discussion, I was able to secure Cargill’s permission for five sessions to photograph their property under supervision. This set was taken late in the day with a launch site just upwind of the salt stacks. As the sun set, I was able to photograph the stacks, the salt plant, and the crystallizer beds beyond. It was an interesting time to photograph for the annual salt harvest was still underway. In this set, you can see the fleet of balloon-tired dump trucks hauling salt to the plant’s washhouse. Here the harvested salt is washed in brine and placed on a rubber conveyor belt for delivery to the stacks. The photographs also show bulldozers on top of the stacks tidying up the pile and pushing salt toward another conveyor belt that delivers salt to the processing plant. It is a busy place!
I took these documentary photographs with the permission and supervision of Cargill. Kite flying is prohibited over Cargill-controlled lands without their permission.

Stack of coins of different denominations
Practicing macro shots using coins while having my break at work.
on an earlier visit to these stakes , we saw an otter run from the cliffs down to this bay and into the sea.
I tried a stack on a Globular Springtail, went quite well, I could have used a tad more flash on this one, but hey ho there you go :)
10 images @ f/9
I think this one is Dicyrtomina saundersi :)
Image of a northbound Canadian National stack train made just north of Ludlow, Illinois, on the Chicago Subdivision. It was shortly after sunrise.
!8 images taken handheld at 24fps, post processed using Affinity Photo Stack and Focus Merge options, with exactly the same settings for each image, On close inspection Focus Merge seems to give the better result.

A series of stacked rocks is formally known as a “cairn” and in my part of the world they are normally found on hiking trails. The reason for them on trails is to help mark the trails for hikers. Outside of hiking they are usually used as landmarks.
That’s all fine and good.
My wife is a massage therapist and while I don’t know the first thing about massage, I am in charge of her online presence for her business. Over the years I have done tons of research that includes looking at countless other massage websites. One thing I’ve noticed is that somehow massage and stacked rocks (normally the smooth stones used for hot stone massage) go hand in hand. I have even used this photo on my wife’s Facebook page in the past.
What I’m curious about is the history between cairns and massage. How did someone decide that a cairn would be a good symbol to represent massage therapy? Any thoughts or comments?

My first attempt at a Stack-N-Whack quilt! Top finished in three days...I love the kaleidoscope look of the blocks and was surprised at how quickly it went. Border and blocks are a floral from Moda's Origins by Basic Grey.
Take alot of images with narrow depth of field and stack them together to produce one image with focus all the way.

My neighbor is a sculptor and this is one of her pieces, it is very minimal in it's stackableness!
Somewhat inspired by my friend and colleague, (www.flickr.com/photos/51782392@N06/), I tried my first macro image stack this evening, having recently acquired a bellows unit. In the absence of any insects, I found a large feather outside to use as my subject. I have no idea what bird this feather has come from.
The image I have uploaded is a crop of the original. I have taken the top-right quarter of the image. I still have to get time to get the settings right.
This is a major draw-back of the A55 - something I have experienced in a studio-type setting, where the image shown on-screen is the image the camera expects to receive (and thus in cases like this, looks exceedingly under-exposed). Despite the 'focus check confirm' feature of the A55, I may find myself using the A700 for its OVF for projects such as this.
