1- Daffodils everywhere! One stamen is out of focus though which is a little annoying!

2- Sunny Daffodil. This one is better but not quite perfect with one bit of stamen still a little oof

3- Fungtacular - Quite like this as the Fungus looks almost alien

4- Leafy Shennanigans - Just a quicky with me holding the leaf up to the sun. Might have been a bit sharper out of the wind and held up by something steadier than my hand but it's ok I guess

5- More Leaves - Got a bit of cloud and a bit of sky in behind this branch for a bit more colour

6- You guessed it... Leaves! I guess leaves are more impressive when you haven't seen any in a while.

7- Lone Cone - There were a few pine trees in this area and their colour in the sun and against the sky was awesome! Not sure I quite did it justice but it's alright I guess

8- Layers - Not sure why the bark did this but I liked the pattern and colours

9- Twigglet - Tried to get as much in focus but the twig wasn't exactly straight :/ It was also quite hard to process it in a way to get as much detail out as possible

Been wanting to have a go at this for a while but again I've missed the mark a little. The edges of the petals etc are a little misaligned but the auto alignment in photoshop made it worse so I guess I just need to shoot this when my tripod isn't on carpet! Oh and maybe take more gradual increments to stack but this is difficult with regular manual focus and no proper macro sliding thingy!

@Ksanti - Yeah I left some colour on the left with a graduated filter/saturation as a bit of an experiment. It didn't look quite right just B&W but also not quite what I wanted in colour.


@ajf - Thanks I definitely want another stab at that last pic with the stacking. I got some shots in other angles too but I missed some layers so there's bits out of focus. This was the most complete one.

Same flower but a few days later... Still a few spots around the deepest parts of the middle of the flower that aren't in focus but it's better than the last ones.
