Well I have found a sure fire way to get rid of bugs, all I have to do is get my camera with the macro lens and they all disappear. I went to my garden which is normally loaded with bugs nothing but very active bees. Not a grasshopper, stink bug, lady bug or any other slow moving bug in sight...

So is there any tricks that any of you use to get bugs to hold still while you get enough photos to stack? These 2 bees only stayed still long enough for 2 photos.

And my 3 try. 6 stacked, hand held.

This is my second try. 6 photos stacked, hand held.

Reminds me of Alice in Wonderland. Excellent photo!

Wow! A lot to learn! Do you know a good inexpensive focus rail? The flower I took was hand held. I took some of a butterfly and he cooperated very well but unfortunately I was a little shaky and the photo did not turn out. I am using my Nikon D810 ( can't afford the mirrorless) and a Tokina...

Thank you for the advice. I am sure I've a lot to learn. Here is my first attempt. I took 8 photos of this chicory flower with my D810 and Macro lens. I used photoshop to blend the stacked photos per Fred's video link. ( Thank you she was much easier to follow than anything else I found)...

Thanks Fred, I will give it a try tonight.

Can anyone suggest a video that teaches how to blend stacked photos in photoshop, please?

I had a lot of favorites this month but I really like the light, background and the composition of this one. He looks so incredibly calm for a hummingbird.

We had a short but hard rain the other day and this little guy took it as an opportunity to take a shower. For some reason not all of the photos show up until you click on the photos at the bottom.

Fabulous photos Clovishound! I especially like the anoles too!

We have a bluebird who is a fairly regular visitor to our fountain most evenings. I got a few photos of him taking a dip and rinsing off from the day's work.
