That is a striking flower with its bold patterning.

Quite a small subject. Well done Henry. I like the second one best with its bright but not harsh light, detail on the ? stigma and composition.

I agree. Interesting light too, coming in from the right? Was it late afternoon perhaps? Or early morning? Or winter sun low in the sky?

Lovely rendition of a very pretty flower.
We have a very similar looking one, also in bloom at the moment. It's flowers are hiding rather awkwardly amongst the foliage at the moment, making it difficult to get a clear shot.

Super post. Good photos and great to have the supporting information.

Nice. Of course I had to look it up.
"Grid bugs are one of the weakest monsters. They are nothing to worry about once you pass level 2. They usually deal no damage at all, unless they manage to zap you as well, and even then the damage is very small. This electric attack does not break your rings and wands unless they are higher level than zero."
So now I know.

Nice! Clarity, colours, detail, background. Very appealing.

Thanks Richard.
For single images I'm finding that aperture bracketing is helping a lot by letting me choose the aperture later based on how it works out for each particular image. While shooting I veer between single images and stacks, sometimes more of one, sometimes more of the other. It isn't as simple as one method being better than the other; they give different results (each with its own, non-trivial, failure rate
). And sometimes I get stuck into using one method and realise later that I had forgotten about using the other.

Thanks Henry.

Thanks.
Not much patience required. All I do is choose which image to use for the front of the stack and which to use for the back of the stack. The software does the stacking, and is fairly quick about it so I don't have to wait around too much. I do often have to use more than one stack, using different stacking parameters/methods and then merge them by painting from one to another. And occasionally it needs a bit more fiddling around. But not a huge amount of time for any of them. If it gets to that stage then I leave it and move on to try another one.
