Thanks, Ken.
The actually photographing of the insect took only about an hour (I did
5 sets of stacks, about 500 images.) Prepping the subject and
configuring / fiddling with flashes took another hour or so. After that
there are long stretches of computer churning - I open all of the DNGs
into Photoshop as one batch, apply the same camera raw adjustments to
the whole set, and then export them as 16 bit tiffs which Zerene Stacker
then stitches together. It can take a couple of hours to go from
unadjusted DNG's to draft stacked images - but all but a few minutes of
that is computer churn time and I usually wander away and come back to
it when it is done. All tolled, I spent about and hour initiating the
stacking etc and also editing / cleaning up the final image. So I'd say
3 hours total time, and that includes getting the 4 other stacks that I
have not processed yet.

Spooky nice mark, but I do like spiders.
How much time is invested, from initial capture to final product?
