Very bold and cheerful image, William! The square comp works great for displaying the interesting center of the sunflower. I haven't done stacking so can't comment on how you did with that. :smile:

The stack looks quite good. I see no artifacts or ghosting. The URC still looks just a pinch oof; otherwise, you achieved excellent detail throughout the image. The colors are big and bold against the black BG. Nicely done, overall. :toast:
