Just beautiful, Eirini! Great details and colors on the flowers and a nice blurred background with a complementary color. Guess that's what stacking can do. Haven't tried it myself though at this point. Nice comp in this too. Certainly looks like spring!

Hi Sally, I am referring to focus stacking. I used Zerene Stacker, but there are several other programs available. I take a series of shots & vary the focus in each shot.

Wonderful shot Eirini! Great job on the stack. The varied maturity of the blossoms and the 'V' formation are really nice and I always enjoy a nice smooth background like you've presented.

Erini:
Lovely bunch of flowers and nice v shape outline. This image is not as sharp as your other stacked images and I wondered if there was some motion in between the shots?
