    I can't see any ghosting, it looks really good. The background is well muted especially considering f13. I like the colours and composition, I am guessing this is a female damsel, you really have got some excellent results, sharp from head to tail and lovely dew droplets. Your stack has worked well, I am not critical of it though I wonder if you would have gotten even better results using 5 stacks at f8?

    Thanks Jonathan,

    You are right this would have been nice a f8. I am about 3/4 life size here, f8 would have made a smoother background too.
