Alan, excellent capture, I really like these kind of images, good composition and use of lighting, my only little "niggle" and it's a personal thing, is some of the petals are bent at odd angles maybe some work in Photoshop could have corrected, but doesn't detract totally from the image

cheers

Colin

Once again another great image. Yes this image stacking lark is very addictive, but a great way of learning patience :wink:

Since seeing your images I,ve been playing around with a 50 mm lens with a 4Xdiopter on, and been trying a few flowers. Three focussing areas and blending the images manually.
I now realise how good these are !
Brilliant. I could look at these all day.
Cheers
