Managed to do some reasonable cross-eye stereograms of a darter dragonfly on an unusually calm day the other day. All shots natural light and focus stacked using zerene ( I was using wide apertures to try and keep the background OOF).

    Wonderful ... again
    Love the clarity.

    Would you mind sharing what time of the day these were shot?
    I have heard the success rate increases when shooting in the cool start of the day.
    My opinion does not necessarily make it true. What you do with my opinion is entirely up to you.

    Thanks for the comments Ace.
    Taken around 10.15 am , I can never find the dragons early in the morning - only see them once it's warmed up. This dragonfly was remarkably tame - it got used to me whilst shooting and I ended up with it posing on my finger.

    Thanks for info - you must be the "Dragonfly Whisperer" of Sussex :D
