manually stacked out of three

That is a great shot. Sure wish it were possible to achieve macro shots like this without the need for stacking.

almost all of my pics are single shots
manual stacking is not the same as full stacking with stacking software's

What is the difference between these two processes?

software calculates the entire images , and try to make something out of it

with manual , you copy small parts from one image to another
- in this case ; legs and dewdrops come from other images , 3 in total

very nicely done--good detail, composition, and lighting.

I appreciate the explanation. It is my understanding several shots are taken of a given subject at different positions. Then software is used to combine these shots into one image. Like HDR.

yep
not at different positions , but different distances
indeed , sort of like HDR

major problem in macro is DOF
this way we try to compensate that

software = DB or zerene
manual = clone with clone-tool = most image-editors have that function
