Nice. Did you use focus rails or just move your focus point?

I moved the focus point, set up my tripod and focused forward about 1-2mm each time - and back again. I did it with other flowers too but the colours were way too bright to blend.
It's actually really easy to stack if you follow a tutorial on the web - i surprised myself how easy it was, it was only a few steps.

This was an interesting one. I had tried some white food coloring to capture what was happening below the waterline. For some reason the white presipitated out as little flecks. Later the center valve with the red food coloring started to have issues and would just dump its contents. As a result the water tank became quite a mess. For this image I fired the strobes a second time manually after the drops had crashed. This helped to give more intensity to the water in the tank.

Echo Lake, New Hampshire. Was on vacation and took a 24-70 lens with me. 24mm didn't end up being wide enough for this spot. Wasn't thrilled with any of the compositions I took of that scene, but will share this one and possibly another.

Congrats!! And wishing much success for such an important cause!
Thank you Florian! Here's one of me at the launch last night, with a councillor from our local council that is a real supporter of grassroots initiatives like mine that help to create a better community and a few of the participants of my Mindful Photography groups.
