I've been posting mostly native orchid photos this summer (will get back to other photos when the weather changes and the native orchids are finished), but thought I'd post a picture or two showing the result of "focus stacking." Bonsai1504 in another thread (
http://www.orchidboard.com/community...-good-dof.html) recommended a program called CombineZM which can be used in macro photography to increase depth of field. I've downloaded and worked with the program and found it very useful. The following photos of a Phalaenopsis and a non-orchid wildflower show some of the results:
