Beautiful love the colours you have a great stack there. I really enjoyed looking at the image.
I appreciate easier said than done but do you have one with the legs in focus?

[John Mack]

Thanks Jonathan, As much as i tried i do not have one with the legs in focus.

Outstanding sharpness within the DOF of your stack! And that sharpness is separated very nicely from the OOF parts of the image. All the tiny water droplets add a lot of interest to your subject.

This is wonderful. The focus stacking is beyond me. Looks like a John Shaw or a John Gerlach image. If you do not know them, it is a big compliment :)

with love, artie
