These shots are amazing looking. This is one of the first shoots I have planned to do when I get back home from this deployment. Nice work...

Ive been looking at your dewdrop refraction shots for years now and still seem to be amazed by every one. You make it look too easy!

I wish I could figure these out. Ive got a the Canon 100mm 2.8 Macro but shooting these by hand is tough sh*t! You do these by hand? I know they are focused stacked but to move the focus ring while maintaining the frame is tough enough!

Tell us how you do it!! My girlfriend would love me if I can get some of these type shots on our walls!
