This fall is the fist time I have found Passion Flowers growing outdoors in the Seattle area. I spent a few minutes photographing some I found growing along an alley in my neighborhood a few weeks ago. These are the result. I spent a lot more time processing these than I did photographing them. Three of the final images are six shot, hand held focus stacks. Nikon D810, Sigma 105mm, f/2.8 lens and ACR/Photoshop.
Wonderful images, Chris! You’re giving Old Hippy a run for his money. A six shot focus stack handheld tells me you have an other worldly control of your body!

A most unusal flower. I have never seen one of these before; lovely and unique.

Very impressive work photoshop or not. It's all part of the process of making images and you excelled. If those passion flowers were growing outside, they be there next year. Once started they spread like weeds and are difficult to get rid of.

Very delicate and sweet. I too am very impressed that you can do hand held focus stacking.
