Re: PESO - Dandelion

Thanks, Jay. Lighting is just a couple of goose neck desk lamps with LED 
bulbs, a few sheets of wax paper in front of the lights to soften it. 
I'm not sure if it really needed all of the those images for the stacks 
- I just adjust the focus as little as possible for each shot. Better to 
have too many stacks than too few.

What is your lighting setup for something like this and does it really 
require that many images in the stack?
