Focus Stacked Image of Another Shell...and a Dandelion
Apr 12, 2023 17:05:53 #
This is a focused stacked image of a little sea snail that lives in the ocean waters of the Indo-Pacific oceans known as Umbonium vestiarium. They enjoy doing what little snails do in the sand. Below is a picture of one of those little cuties, courtesy of the internet. Their shells are similar although there are a variety of colors depending upon the many species.
This session was staged with the 85mm f/2.8 1X-5X macro lens dialed to 1.5X at f/4. There were 114 images in the stack processed with Zerene Stacker to produce the image posted.
The last image is another dandelion seed head that I found in the yard this morning as a single-shot image taken with the Nikon 105mm f/2.8 Z-mount macro lens that I shot wide open to create a creamy dream-like image so that I would have something to do this morning.

Keep them coming, sippy.
Thanks, Kpmac. What fun is it to have toys if we don't play with them?

Nice set!
Thanks, Basil. The sea snail shell has no association with the dandelion other than the joy of using the camera to take the image.

I think the shells could be a pretty close representation of the Fibonacci sequence.
