Fallen pine needles and staghorn lichens on a (very) wet rock face.

This is close to the enhanced near limit of my OM 28mm f/3.5 lens on the Z6, ie. around 1:1.5 in the very foreground. Exposure f/5.6, around 1/10 sec, ISO 100,  N=151 frames stacked in Zerene Stacker.

I'm still experimenting with the technique. It provides excellent clarity of small objects close-up, and brings with it massive efforts in the shooting and post-processing stages. Is it worth its while? I have no definite answer yet. Still just curious. The handling of objects poking outside the sliver-thin depth-of-field zone is much better than what can be attained with movements and Scheimpflug's rule, or to be more precise, the potential for near limitless depth of field is there. The gain is counteracted by deficiencies in the stacking method(s) that tend to make unwanted edge blurs and necessitate tedious retouching. There is no such ting as a free lunch.

I have zero knowledge of the technique but I like the result, Birna.

I'm sick at home, watching a documentary on Bruce Springsteen, one of my favourite musicians.

Stacking in the field should be quite a challenge.  The resulted image is impressive for sure!
