And here is my next attempt at image stacking. This time I took 25 photos using a bounced flash with the 40mm Nikkor lens. Much happier. Cheers, Brad :)

Okay for comparison sake I promised a look at the 2 lenses. Hopefully this will show people the difference between the wide angle lens and the WIDE angle lens. Pic 1 is using the Nikkor 18-200mm set at it's widest. Pic 2 is using the Tokina 11-16mm set at it's widest. Both shot from the same...

When looking for Members photos, I notice that there are quite a lot of people who don't have many shots on here. I must admit I'm looking in the left hand side bar which says Images and a number. I gather if it doesn't say Images the member doesn't have a 'Gallery' on here? Please correct me if...

Silver Princess Eucalypt. AF-S DX Micro NIKKOR 40mm f/2.8G Cheers, Brad :)

First attempt at image stacking. Pretty lousy but I'll keep at it. Interesting process. Cheers, Brad :)

Seems like we're all giving it a go. My first attempt at Focus Stacking. Using Australian $2 & $1 coins. I used the 18-200 Nikkor lens but I think I'd try a different lens next time. I had trouble knowing just how much to shift focus. Cheers, Brad :)

Phalaenopsis orchid. Shot inside using LED lighting and a couple with speedlight flash. Cheers, Brad :) ​

I was practicing photographing a Phalaenopsis orchid. Using a speedlight SB 400 and 'bouncing it off the white ceiling'. Mostly cropped and lighting slightly adjusted. All have been size adjusted for posting here. Backdrop is dark grey metallic venetian blinds with some daylight coming through...

Do ferns count as flowers? I took this with the AF-S Nikkor 18-200mm on the D3200. Cheers, Brad :)

This is Hardenbergia violacea 'Mini Ha Ha'. A dwarf form of the climbing/rambling bush. Gets smothered in tiny flowers. I used the D3200 with a AF-S Micro Nikkor 1:2.8G Cheers, Brad :)

Winter in Australia and the Camellias bloom. This is one called 'Volunteer'. Bred in New Zealand in 2000 I believe. Literally covers in flowers. Cheers, Brad :)

Hi there. Just wondering if there is a way to increase the maximum number of postings I'm seeing on each page in a thread. Usually just half a dozen posts or so and then the reply box. Might be easier to navigate if we could see more posts rather than clicking on all those pages? Just a thought...

2 macros I just shot of embroidery from a Japanese Uchikake (Wedding Kimono). Both areas are about an inch wide in reality. Lightened the first and made them both smaller for uploading.

Misty, cold & wet here in Melbourne at the moment. Our Dandenong Ranges have some beautiful areas. Cheers, Brad :)

Another couple of pics using the same technique. This time using the 18-55mm Nikkor lens. Photoshopped the second image. Cheers, Brad :)

Using the Nikkor 40mm2.8G lens, I wanted to capture water boiling in a glass jug. Lightened & Cropped. Cheers, Brad :)

I prefer Jillspinsaround's pic of marbles but thought I'd have a go at it myself. 40mm lens under LED lighting. A lot more mood in the other pic. But hey, it gives me something to aspire to. Cheers, Brad :) ​

There were about 30 of us with tripods, various cameras. "Sound triggered flash". We all focussed on the subject (in this case a balloon covered with silly string) and then the lights were turned off. 'Everyone open their shutters', which we did. The demonstrator smacked the balloon with a...

My first trip in a balloon. We travelled over the wine country of Victoria, Australia. The Yarra Valley. Misty. I used the 18-55 kit lens I think. I took these photos on Automatic because I was afraid of screwing them up. After all, it was probably the last time I'd go in a balloon! Cheers, Brad :D

Taken at Hastings, Victoria, Australia. Sunrise. Cropping only. Using the 18-55 kit lens. Cheers, Brad. :D ​
