I was experimenting with focus stacking techniques using 8 different focal points. I hope you enjoy. Thanks!

Hi Skippy. First thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed the photo. I did 8 shots with varying focus point and the camera fixed on a tripod. I combined and blended the shots in CS4 Photoshop and with a little bit of touch-up work... Voila! The program is pretty much automated, so the only place that allows for experimentation is is shooting the photos. Supposedly even better results can be had using a fixed focus and simply moving the camera body on rails affixed on a tripod. Hope that helps!

This is a neat technique I wasn't familiar with until seeing your experiments here...great job! I Googled it I found a YouTube video that also has some how-to tips and software recommends as well. May have to try this sometime soon.
