Lavender Iris and Bee 2 shot stack
May 17, 2018 16:01:15 #
A bee came along to explore my lavender iris while I was taking shots of it. I tried two frames and got the bee in one, but it had moved and I got only the flower in the other. But that frame had sharp focus on parts of the bloom that were not in focus with the bee.
So just to see if it would work I used those two frames to do a focus stack. It worked. The main fault was a triangle area where you could see the back ground between two petals but it was completely blown out. I cloned some of the lavender in to fill it.
Below are the two frames I stacked to get this image.
I may put in a long cloning session to fix the background, maybe try two versions, one with the dark and one with the light colors.
