I took this Monday and made the poster today 10/02
this is a stack of 5 photos
I don't know what stacked photos are, so I won't assume what it is. However, my eye sees (when I downloaded) a few of the apples look like they are 3D or popped, is that from layering several photos? Makes me want to reach in a grab one to eat! The detail of the speckles on the apples makes it look so 3D as well to me...never really looked at an apple to notice the speckles, but I will look the next time I buy them.

You've got it caboose. I took 5 pictures (using a tripod) and I changed the focal point on each photo. Then when I edit them I stack one picture on top of the other. That way to have more depth and you are right it makes them almost 3-D. I could have done something similar with HDR but sometimes I don't like the way they look. I'll put up another picture or two.

While driving through the orchard we saw an apple on a fence post. This is my favorite photo
Apple on a Stick

Dumb question - when you stack them - do you change the transparency or? Obviously i have not stacked before.

I use Photomerge in Photoshop, I used Photoshop Elements 10 for this. Basically you are blending all of the photos together.

Good set and nice work.
Thanks, we were lucky most of the apple were already picked.
Outstanding work! I love the one with all of the apples in the harvest bins. If I may suggest, I think this image's impact would really increase if you were to crop down to remove the sky. The sky really doesn't add anything, in fact it tends to distract from the main subject. This would give to you the basis of yet another stunning poster.
Very nice work, indeed.

All are very good photos, but I especially love the one with the path through the orchard! :thumbup:
