I felt just in the right mood to take a few macro shots this morning. First I chose the subject - a small flowering cactus plant:
Found a space to set up my home brew set-up for taking a series of focus stacked photos:
The Canon M5 fitted with Canon 18-150mm zoom lens and added a Raynox DCR-150 macro lens. Each stacked macro photo is made from 40 - 50 individual shots and processed in Helicon Focus software. The results ....
The flower is about 17mm across.
A job well done.
ReplyDeleteAdrian: Thank you
DeleteBeautiful shots with stunning detail and clarity. I love the yellow pollen against the pink petals surrounded by spiny starbursts.
ReplyDeleteWilma: I think my favourite is the first ne with the buds hiding behind the spines.
Deletebeautiful photos :) Also pleased you have frog spawn - our frogs still have not stirred!!!
ReplyDeleteRR: Thank you. They surprised me as it doesn't seem very warm, maybe the amount of Sunshine prompted them to start.
ReplyDeleteSome great macros John.
