Well interesting that the least stacked is what I picked as my favorite
and I thought the one that was stacked was the hepatica that was stacked
the most.
I'm glad you forgot whatever else you planned to do...:-)
I definitely find I prefer less stacking or none - they look more
natural to me.
More inspiring stuff Mark, with a "tutorial" to boot. Do you crank the focus
on continuous shoot or do it individually? Some of the flowers are actually
minute & would be missed by most people. BTW, thanks for the fave.

Thanks, Ken. They are all stacked. I encode a summary of the post

there is a numeric rance in the file name that's the stacked images.
