I go the opposite direction of focus stacking--looking for interesting shots with extremely shallow DOF. Here is an example at just over 1:1 using a Repro-Nikkor 85mm f/1.0 lens wide open.

Well, not quite that expensive, but not cheap.

Nice... Funny, I just recently took an image of immature blueberries as well. Not macro though although I did use a macro lens...
