Subject: Dragonflies and Stack Focused Damselfly

I visited a prime dragonfly location yesterday, but the cool temps, gusty winds 
and overcast skies did not make for a high volume shoot. I got 3 nice shots 
which are here:

The last shot on the post - the Bluet Damselfly - is a departure for me because 
it is a focus stacked  composition of 16 separate shots. This was compiled in 
Photoshop. The focus stacking tool there had seemed to be useless to me because 
it was such a  PITA to manually stack images as layers in a single file -    
but I finally stumbled on a webpage that explains how to use bridge to open 
multiple files and then make them just layers of one file in Photoshop - ah, 
life is good. I can see doing more focus stacking in the future - it worked 
pretty well in the field yesterday.

C&C appreciated.

Mark
