Taken early light, in the back garden - a stack of 6 images f6.3 1/100 sec ISO 100. Doing this outside and being at the mercy of a breeze took a few attempts. I also repeated the exercise at higher ISO.
This time I used Photoshop, last time I used Combine ZP, in this particular instance Combine ZP resulted in some ghosting but I haven't spotted any in this Photoshop version.
I have also used a couple of Nik filters (Tone mapping and detail) to control the contrast and enhance detail a little. The original files were very contrasted, I exposed for the highlights this left the foliage very dark as was the unopened flower. The background was rather untidy and had uneaten lighting, I have tidied it up.
I regard this more of a technical exercise than an image of real pictorial content so as usual all comments are welcome.
