Focus Stacking

Filed under: Insect/Life, Macro — Tags: , , , , , — soulperk @ 11:33 pm

One of the challenges in doing macro shooting is dealing with very thin Depth of Focus (DOF), resulting some part of your object turn to be out of focus. One technique to eliminate this problem is by focus stacking. You can read more about focus stacking from this website. Anyway, here is my first attempt to do a focus stacking, I took a total of 8 pictures just to create this one image.

Above: As you can see, almost all parts of the insect body are in focus. (ALMOST hehe..),
Anyway, got to try this again… and properly this time. :) …still learning…

Below: Here is one of the original picture I use to create the above image. (Just for comparison),
Not all of the parts are in focus, especially the hind legs & tail.
