Hi Marco, nice set of shots and you already know that I particularly like the Liverwort (in German: Leberblümchen) ;-) ... Cheers, Mark

I needed to try out some focus stacking and really enjoyed working with some Anemone. A series of 4 images can be viewed at 100% in Prodibi - This 100% view is however a 4 x pixel count using TOPAZ ...

Hi Roger, thanks for all the infos and links ... and for taking the time - much appreciated! All the best, Mark

Hi, thanks for the Feedback - very much appreciated. As you can tell from my questions i am very much a newbie in terms of trying this type of image :-D ... The "artificial blurring" comes from my ...

Hi David, Taking the pictures: I used a three way video head on the tripod. Starting from a level horizon and focusing on the stars (manual / maximum magnification), I used two from the three pivot ...

Thanks Greg, that certainly bumps Australia up the (very long) list quite a bit ;-) ... Exposure settings between ISO 2000 / 4 sec. for the 35mm, ISO 1600 / 3.2 sec. for the 50mm and ISO 1600 / 2.5 ...

Three panoramas of the Milky Way, which can be zoomed in and viewed at up to ca. 1/4 final resolution. Has been posted else where so apologies if seen already. The images were taken with a Sony ...

Thank you, very much appreciated - It certainly was a lot of fun but after 5 hours at (and near) the summit both myself and my partner were very ready to move down the mountain a little. ...

Thank you, there is a drive to the top but you need a four wheel drive (partly because it is not paved, but also for the very long drive down you need low ratio gears).  The classic Jeep Wrangler ...

Thanks Vitée, these were very much planned images, before we went (even though i forgot to take an L-piece, which would have made the camera movement easier) I was so pleased with how the 85mm ...

Sorry about that, should have put "Sony" in the title ... With our SD Quattro Hs ISO 200 is the upper limit for both myself and Ines (which is absolutely fine for all of our other work), The Sony ...

Thanks Larry, I too like the composition of from the 35mm (probably closest to a more classical composition from a wide angle lens) but i do enjoy zooming in to the 85mm ;-) ... With the 35mm ...

Thanks, I was kind of working on that principle :-)

Thanks for the complement Nick, i wasn't aware of the bug but I really wouldn't have missed a few stars (there seems to be 'enough' ;-) ...) Interesting, when I saw your comment about the post, I ...
