Aside from my wife yelling at me for dripping water on the floor, no. Although a lot of what I'm shooting now that would benefit from focus stacking would be at parks and gardens where they take a dim view of your picking flowers and plants to take home. The more static insects might be OK, but...

Decided I needed to shoot these using more images. Lots of folks are using between 50 and 100, which seems excessive to me. I took this one using 20 images and increased the distance between shots. It was shot at F11, using flash. I should have either increased the number of shots a little, or...

Rearrange them into: See no evil. Smell no evil. I ain't putt'n up with no evil.

I can't decide whether I like the B&W or the color version better.

Tried out focus stacking today. This one worked, although I didn't start the first focus slice close enough. I only used 5 images. Seems like it was enough for the area used. I also did a time delay to allow the flash to recover between shots.

A is for alligator.

And then there is Auto non capture!

Managed to get a picture of a nice buck in my backyard. Not sure how he got over the fence.

Welcome. Be careful, this hobby can take a big chunk out of your federal retirement, if you let it. But, it's a fun ride. I retired almost 2 years ago after 38 yrs with the USPS. I've been re-bitten by the photobug, but haven't had the electricity cut off yet. There are a lot of good Youtube...

It's OK Fred, that's a GFI circuit! ;)

I thought about doing some B&W macro on small details of this guy. Decided I'd probably better let sleeping gators lie. I did have my snakeproof, waterproof, knee high boots on. The box didn't say anything about gatorproof. I'm jealous of the hummingbird photo. I managed to get one in my...

Had an unusual day at the Swamp this morning. Didn't come home with much. This was one of the very small handful I edited, and I'm still not sure it's worth posting. I kind of like it, and I kind of don't. That should probably tell me something, I guess.

I looked at my daughter's D5600 and couldn't find anything in the menu the would allow you to either switch to LV or program another button to LV. If it is just the tab that has broken off, or the entire ring? If it's just the tab, you may be able to manipulate the switch with something like a...

These assassin bug nymphs are strange looking critters. I've noticed them in the bushes before, but never really paid them much attention until I started trying to shoot macro.

Probably the biggest down side to this flash is the size. It's a rather large and heavy unit. I decided going in that I may need the power it supplies, and didn't want to have to buy twice. Since I got the wireless transmitter when I bought this, I will be able to add other units, if and when I...
