photoartflight5 Image Narrow Focus Stack
Posted on May 16, 2015
While at Longwood Gardens in Kennet Square, PA., I tried quite a few handheld focus stacked images. Using a 150mm Macro lens lens with multiple focus points, I shot 5 images, wide open for a very narrow focus at 5 different focus points to get this flower in sharp focus with a soft background. Combining the images in Photoshop for the final image. It was fun to see the final results.
Fall Photos

I spent the morning with a friend at the Greenway entrance to The Clery Farm Natural Area in Allendale, NJ. We were looking for Fall Still Life images in the fields. There had been a rain during the night so there were water droplets all around. All images were with the Canon 1D MkIV with the Sigma 150mm f/2.8 OS Macro. Because of the breeze I shot some images at f/4 to help stop the motion with a higher shutter speed and used a 2 shot image stack for the depth of field and also for exposure of the highlights.
