As noted earlier I had a touch of cabin fever so I decided to try my first outdoor focus stack.\u00a0 What this means is that I have to drag along a laptop computer and a tethering line in addition to the camera and tripod.\u00a0 All of this is easy enough.\u00a0 What isn’t easy is telling the wind to stop blowing for the requisite two or three minutes of exposure time.\u00a0 And in fact, this picture is cropped as tightly as it is because some leaves were blowing around in the debris pile.\u00a0 Looking at it now I also note that the left side shoot is a little over exposed.\u00a0 So let us say as art it’s slightly underwhelming.\u00a0 But as an experiment in field macrophotography technique it will be “required reading at the Academy.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
