Thanks, Chris!

I've gotten faster at doing these so it took just under 30 minutes to setup the shot and take the 140 images that were combined into the final output. The processing of the files in the PC took more time but I would set up and task and leave to do something else, returning now and then to setup the next one. Converting 140 DNG's to TIFFs and then stacking those together takes a good bit of time - but once a process is launched it can run unattended, though there are several steps that have to be setup and run separately.

As for getting the subject to say still - this reference shot explains that:

Amazing Mark. 2 questions come to mind 1) how long does it take to get
all those images? and 2) how do you keep the specimen to stay in the
same place?

Took a somewhat different approach with this one and it seems to have worked
out OK. Or maybe the subject is just very photogenic. Be sure to check out
the lager view for all the detail. Comments welcome!
