Nice image, Mitch love the shell....
Lovely detail and color in the shell. I'm not sure about the hard lighting and strong shadows.
Nice close up view of a lovely shell, Mitch. I like the simplified background:S3:
Great shell! Not sure about the composition with the shell horizontal and the bkgd so strongly diagonal. I might experiment with tipping the shell in the direction of the diagonals, since the shell has a strong tip to tail that makes an obvious line of direction. Those internal spirals and colors add an interesting visual flow in another direction. So for me I see too many strong visual directions with this presentation.
Great detail, and luminosity on the shell. Could you share your technique and program that you used to put it together. I like the composition, but might try to minimize the triangular shape on the URC.
Jackie,
I am still a novice at focus stacking. I started with Elements XXL (an add on to photoshop Elements - I still use elements and have not graduated to the Full Photoshop). I had enough luck with that that I wanted something better, so I now am using Zerene stacker. Very easy to use with a good editing function.
