•  Info Flower of the salad burnet stacked from 23 shots. All by me -- Ermell (talk) 12:59, 24 July 2019 (UTC)
•  Support -- Ermell (talk) 12:59, 24 July 2019 (UTC)
•  Comment This is good. I'll support it once the focus-stacking is tidied up (particularly the background). Also, wouldn't it be better with the stalk vertical? Charles (talk) 13:13, 24 July 2019 (UTC)

• Background reworked.--Ermell (talk) 21:19, 24 July 2019 (UTC)
•  Comment still very obvious focus-stackling faults Ermell. Charles (talk) 11:44, 25 July 2019 (UTC)

• That's a problem with the crossing tentacles.--Ermell (talk) 12:10, 25 July 2019 (UTC)

• Sure, in Photoshop I would use cloning tool. Charles (talk) 16:57, 25 July 2019 (UTC)

• Rotating and having the stalk upright would make the hanging things look like they were blowing in the wind rather than responding to gravity. --Cart (talk) 13:51, 24 July 2019 (UTC)

• Not so. I tried it. Charles (talk) 15:38, 24 July 2019 (UTC)
• No, the wind effect doesn't work -- Basile Morin (talk) 00:13, 25 July 2019 (UTC)

•  strong support Very nice motif. A veil of subdued greens provides an excellent background for the intensely red bristles, the yellow pollen-bearers, and their pure white stalks. At top resolution thousands of sharply defined pollen globules appear. My full respect if this stack was taken outside of a studio! Nevertheless, some "messy" areas appear between stalks, but this (as I know due to my own delving into this tricky photographical technique) is inevitable with such criss-crossing details, as the stalks at front partially cover up those behind and the hindmost are almost completely bereft of any processible details. Yes, an admirable state-of-the-art focus stack for such a difficult subject! --Franz van Duns (talk) 14:38, 24 July 2019 (UTC)
•  Support. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 15:19, 24 July 2019 (UTC)
•  Support per Franz, looks quite excellent to me. Cmao20 (talk) 15:59, 24 July 2019 (UTC)
•  Support --Cayambe (talk) 16:59, 24 July 2019 (UTC)
•  Neutral Too many of those "ghosts" you get from the unsharp areas in some photos around the selected sharp areas. A higher f-number (longer dof) and consequently fewer photos would probably have solved that problem. 23 photo seems a bit like overkill to me. --Cart (talk) 17:09, 24 July 2019 (UTC)

 Comment F5 is quite high at 1/25 second and a moving object. With an image scale close to 1:1, so many frames are actually necessary.--Ermell (talk) 21:11, 24 July 2019 (UTC)

•  Support Ahmad^talk 17:22, 24 July 2019 (UTC)
•  Support Nicely done. --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 20:28, 24 July 2019 (UTC)
•  Oppose fascinating shot but there are too many ghost/stacking errors on the plant. Seven Pandas (talk) 21:49, 24 July 2019 (UTC)
•  Support Stacking is imperfect (I empathize), but it's striking nonetheless. — Rhododendrites ^talk |  00:02, 25 July 2019 (UTC)
•  Comment Beautiful flower and good light, but there are many ghosts at the lower part, like white stems out of focus, so technically it looks strange. I wonder if enough frames were taken here for this focus stacking work. Also  Question is there a reason why the last version was downsized from 19,6 Mpx to 15 Mpx ? -- Basile Morin (talk) 00:13, 25 July 2019 (UTC)

• I changed the background and the aspect ratio slightly.--Ermell (talk) 06:57, 25 July 2019 (UTC)

• Yes and the resolution also a little bit -- Basile Morin (talk) 07:29, 25 July 2019 (UTC)

•  Support.--Vulphere 16:10, 25 July 2019 (UTC)
•  Support --Boothsift 18:27, 25 July 2019 (UTC)
•  Support --Palauenc05 (talk) 20:52, 26 July 2019 (UTC)
•  Support Daniel Case (talk) 22:39, 26 July 2019 (UTC)
•  Support Christian Ferrer ^(talk) 07:26, 27 July 2019 (UTC)
•  Oppose Too many stacking artefacts IMO, sorry --Llez (talk) 15:10, 27 July 2019 (UTC)
•  Oppose Yes, it needs a lot of work still. Shame. Charles (talk) 17:50, 27 July 2019 (UTC)
•  Support -- -donald- (talk) 12:16, 29 July 2019 (UTC)
•  Oppose Per others. --Hockei (talk) 16:06, 31 July 2019 (UTC)
•  Oppose per Seven Pandas. --Ivar (talk) 18:16, 31 July 2019 (UTC)
