  • Olympus OM-D E-M1 Mk.2, Olympus 30mm Macro
  • F/8 30.0mm 1/100s ISO-1000 15 frames

I'm still figuring out how to best do this, but I'm amazed at the pictures I can get! This is the JPEG straight from the camera, so no editing other than the stacking and tweaks the camera does. I almost exclusively use natural light, but I'm probably going to need to grab something for this type of thing.

Lots of fun, and if my neighbors didn't think I was crazy before, I'm sure they do now! ๐Ÿ˜‚

I've never done it, but a lot of wildlife photography is focus stacked, especially when more than one animal is in focus in the photo.

    Thanks to the longer focal lengths and brighter light making narrow apertures more viable, it's not something I've needed for my birds.

    But I've definitely felt the pain of the reduced DoF the few times I've tried macro
