new work Seed Pod

Not a flower anymore so how to classify? We don't have a close up

category. This is a 15 image stack processed in Zerene Stacker.

Radu, Gregory, Verena, and others; do you use image stacking software

in your photography?

David, good morning. Nice image. To me it is not (yet) a seed pod, but a wildflower, still going to open. We have similar samples here (Portugal).

The stems you see at the outside will suddenly all turn downwards and form a "big flower", being a group of many tiny flowers...... check this link:

Dave,  This looks like Queen Anne's lace- not quite open yet. Certainly a flower item!  I don't use stacking-haven't had much success with it. I do use as high an f stop as possible for dof.  With something this size, f 18 to 20 should do a good job. G

Dear David, this is the flower of wild carrot (Daucus carota) In the countryside of my region it is very frequent. I too have often used with great satisfaction the focus stacking technique, there are some images in my portfolio in the series of Macro. I use the software of Photoshop. This is a very nice photo, the enlarged image shows all the sharp details of the seeds, ciao Giangiorgio
