first attempt at stacking

ole doc

this represents my first attempt at stacking. I used CombineZM. The subject was a grasshopper figurine (no problem with movement) I took the three images changing focus.
I realize there are out of focus segments in the final. Will need to be more careful to cover the entire subject next time.

looks like a nice outcome.. I must admit I don't know what stacking is but will be looking around to find out

looks good, and wb corrected well.
it takes a lot of practise in shooting the frames to prevent oof areas, you dont always notice a missed bit when shooting
