Re: PESO - Longhorn Beetle
Thanks, Chris! I've gotten faster at doing these so it took just under 30 minutes to setup the shot and take the 140 images that were combined into the final output. The processing of the files in the PC took more time but I would set up and task and leave to do something else, returning now and then to setup the next one. Converting 140 DNG's to TIFFs and then stacking those together takes a good bit of time - but once a process is launched it can run unattended, though there are several steps that have to be setup and run separately. As for getting the subject to say still - this reference shot explains that: http://www.markcassino.com/b2evolution/media/blogs/calarti/2015/15-05-30/imgp0021-30.jpg - Mark On 5/31/2015 10:36 AM, Chris Mitchell wrote: Amazing Mark. 2 questions come to mind 1) how long does it take to get all those images? and 2) how do you keep the specimen to stay in the same place?

Re: PESO - Longhorn Beetle
Thanks, Darren! Regarding the different approach - the most important thing was that I gave up on trying to micro manage the stacking process and doing it right n a single pass. For htis I took 5 passes at the subject, caturing 20-50 images per pass. I combined each pass into an intermediary image and then combined those 5 images into the final product. Up till now I have been trying to do it all in one pass, often trying for 100+ exposures but that seemed to result in lost of redundant images and still gaps / banding where I would move the camera a little too far. Its easier and (at least in this case) more effective to just do the multiple runs. It seems totally obvious now, but getting into this I was of a mindset that tightly controlling it all was really important when what is actually important is to oversample the heck out of the subject and let the stacking software sort it out.

Re: PESO - Longhorn Beetle
Wow, that's some extreme macro! So sharp. So are you going to share the somewhat different approach or just tease us with it? :) On Sat, May 30, 2015 at 5:45 PM, Mark C pdml-m...@charter.net wrote: http://www.markcassino.com/b2evolution/index.php/longhorn-beetle Took a somewhat different approach with this one and it seems to have worked out OK.

Re: PESO - 'Hanging out'
Nice one Ken. Sharpness on the main subject and a lovely out of focus background. Good composition too.

Re: PESO - Longhorn Beetle
Amazing Mark. 2 questions come to mind 1) how long does it take to get all those images? and 2) how do you keep the specimen to stay in the same place?
