Another orchid focus stack
Apr 9, 2019 23:03:30 #
I spent a little time this evening with a couple of lights and instead of my 105mm macro lens I used my 50mm (non-macro). This is a large subject so it made more sense. This ended up being a stack of 10 frames.

Beautiful.
Is it true that controlling the focus on a subject's background is difficult thus necessitating a plain background? I have justed started to try this technique and run into that problem.

I always use a large enough aperture to ensure that everything in the background will be out of focus. Of course, the large the aperture the more focus slices are needed. I find a plain background (when possible) results in a more pleasing image because there is less to distract from the subject. I have not run into any significant problem, however, so long as the background is not in focus.

It is so pretty and I would not have guessed that it took so many images to make this stunning piece of work. But I have not tried to do this yet and hope to soon . Your work is so nice.

This is an excellent image. The time needed to set this up really paid off.
