Image Stacking

Post by BydoR9 »

Just tried a spot of image stacking. Was attracted to the natural fractals of this Romanesco broccoli.

It definitely works best as a mono image for me - open to any comments though. :D

No comments really needed, apart from that it's very, very nice.
Best regards

Thanks John! :D

Not sure that it's competition worthy, it's just a texture really I suppose. It's a 17 shot stack. :[]

Fabulous detail, not sure how much work went into 17 shot stack but the detail is outstanding.

Thanks Tracey.

It's not as difficult as you'd expect, especially as it's a still subject. Planning on showing people how to do it on my Saturday macro workshop. :)

Actually I think that this would do quite well in competitions, ( could be a winner with the right judge ).
It's a great image and I would definitely put it in.

Thanks Keith, glad you think so. :D

Reason I wasn't sure about entering it is because I once entered my Colours of Spring image in a comp and the judge said, 'I'm not sure why this has been entered, it's a nice image, but just a technical exercise really'. I suppose, like you say, if I get the right judge it may score well.

The detail is amazing, Andy. Definitely worth a competition entry.
