•  Comment a shame that the stack did not include the stem. Charlesjsharp (talk) 11:22, 27 July 2021 (UTC)
  • It's really a pity that the flower stem is not completely sharp. But despite this flaw, I think the picture is good enough for FP. -- Radomianin (talk) 12:42, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

• Note on the flower spike. The flower hangs a few cm. for the flower stem. To get the stem super sharp, a number of photos are placed between the stem and the flower. My experience is that this is often at the expense of the flower. So I made the flower stem subordinate to the flower.--Agnes Monkelbaan (talk) 15:28, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

• Thank you for your explanations :) It is a very good photo and the stem is of secondary importance. -- Radomianin (talk) 15:50, 27 July 2021 (UTC)
• Agnes, I don't think it's needed here, but one way to address this issue in future images is to use the 'slabbing' technique: instead of making a single stack for both the flower and the stem (which, as you mentioned, could result in a less sharp or even ghostly flower), you make two sub-stacks (one for the flower and one for the stem) and then stack those together. Zerene Stacker has an automatic slabbing option, but the same can also be achieved manually in Helicon Focus or Photoshop. Julesvernex2 (talk) 18:22, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

• Thank you very much for your suggestion. I don't know that edit. But I'm going to delve into it.--Agnes Monkelbaan (talk) 04:27, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
