RFK Bridge and Manhattan in the background
Nice -- I like the second one the best.

Stacking allows you to take several shots with different focus points. When you merge them in Photoshop you get more aspects of the subject in focus. With one image you can usually only focus on a certain area, of course depending on your aperture setting. Stacking is particularly useful in macro photography.
I get it. Thanks for the explanation. I have not shot macro before. I guess even with a smaller aperture, getting everything in focus is tough. I appreciate the response!
Agree on PP tips.
From a composition standpoint. Try to avoid putting the horizon right in the middle. Also look for some interesting foreground element.
I have not used photo stacking before. What were you able to achieve via stacking that you could not have captured in one image? Still learning -- thanks for the help.

Some nice shots. My question also is where were these taken? My grandparents came from Spain.

Very eye-catching image, I love it. Perfect in b&w! I might have included a tiny bit more above the window (if it was photogenic :) ).
Agreed! Unfortunately, it was an ugly roofline. Thanks for the feedback!
Taking photographs of animals is generally something I avoid. Animals tend to move around a lot and dont take directions well (This is true of some humans, I am afraid). For some reason, this horse seemed to enjoy being my model for the morning and his proud, calm demeanor is evident in the image. Still, his eyes betray a sense of sadness or longing as if he were imagining himself running across an open field rather than being stuck inside on a beautiful August morning.
