Great series, really like those drops, and for a first try in stacking simply magnificent.

Thanks everybody!

Way cool!! I wish I could get a better grip on Focus Stacking. I've played with it in PS5 and get lousy results. How do you get a Damselfly to sit long enough for more than one or 2 shots, too?

OOOOH, really nice! Like the little dew drops on his back hairs.

DeVil

Thanks ElginetPhotos and BeardedChick

I shoot early ih the morning whilst the bugs are still sleepy. The temperature is low and they have a hard time flying then. Last one is a stack from 8 exposures (f/11, tripod).
