ooh is that mine?
Yes. It's a bit too greyscale and HDaRsh, I know, but I only spent about 6min on it.

Probably not as bad as my eyes, but I feel the pain. Thank goodness for composite lenses that don't weight 10 lbs.
Focus stacking is fun

That's only when I use my extenders
I focused on several parts of the pink flower on the right, edited the pictures together in Lightroom then imported them into another program. It let me get a lot more of the flower in focus at macro focus range than possible with one shot.
"Stacking" is the post-process combination of multiple shots into one final shot, whether those shots were taking through different filters, at different focal points, at different positions, whatever.

Mine were taken and processed all the same, I just shifted the focus slightly n each frame for different parts of the flower.

Not really a picture, but I thought it belonged here since it's personal. Sundays I usually do a 30-40 mile bike ride. This is about a 30 mile loop shot in timelapse using a GoPro. It shows some of the awesome bike trails Houston has. For those familiar with Houston, this starts at my house, goes up onto the Addicks dam, along Houston's main reservoir recharge on a fire road on top of the dam, down Greenhouse road near Katy (next town west of Houston), down through George Bush Park along another dam, through Terry Hershey park, and back home.
The GoPro's fisheye lens flattens the dam, curiously. It's about 25 feet above the ground on the left, and 35 or more above the reservoir floor on the right. I wish I'd gotten a good shot of the reservoir itself in there, because you wouldn't believe that there's a place like this in the 4th largest city in the US. It looks like something out of Middle Earth. Very pretty and full of wildlife. I'll check for a photo of the reservoir.

needs Wacky Sax for a score.

Notice that I stopped for a little while near a bike lying on its side. The fisheye effect flattens all the hills, but that's a pretty steep one. I saw the girl you can see if you pause it pitch forward face first off her scooter, which caused her mom to pitch off her bike going down that hill. The little girl had a nice bloody scrape on her chin, but the mom insisted they were okay when I stopped to offer help.

You have excellent taste!

Nah, HCGLNS is occasionally funny.
