Focus Stacking Technique.
Michelle Alton March 31, 2013
I've just sent you BP mail because this work has me riveted to the page. Incredible, phenomenal work. Boy, would I love to know more about your method! Or to see a sampling of the photos that you stacked. Thanks so much for sharing your focus stacking work! #1521784Carlos Esteban Solis Fallas March 31, 2013
Hi Michelle. Thank you very much for your kind words. I sent you already a response. #10636371Robert Jensen April 03, 2013
Superb -how many images did it take to create this one? #10640823Carlos Esteban Solis Fallas April 03, 2013
Thank you Robert. 78 photos. #10640838Robert Jensen April 03, 2013
Great work - lots of patience to do that many images. I guess I'd have to try this with small jpeg images as 78 raw images would be too large to handle. #10640853Robert Jensen April 03, 2013
By the way, do you know my friend and BetterPhoto instructor Jim Zuckerman? He leads a hummingbird workshop each year in Costa Rica. #10640854Carlos Esteban Solis Fallas April 04, 2013
Yes I have heard about him. I´d like to go to this workshop someday. #10641169Robert Jensen April 04, 2013
His next hummingbird worshop is in Dec.http://jimzuckerman.com/?page/71805/costa-rica-hummingbirds
I send him your website and he loves your macro work. By the way, I am a trained entomologist. A friend of mine did a lot of collecting of longhorn beetles in Costa Rica. Anyways, you should try to meet Jim when he comes down there. I will let him know you are interested. #10641354

Thank you very much Robert!!! I appreciate a lot your help. I´d like to know about insects. Now that I take photograpies of bugs, I begin to feel interest to learn scientifics names and others things. I want to make a question to you because you are entomologist. I´m going to write you a private message. Thanks again. #10641369Robert Jensen April 04, 2013

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.
Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
