Photo stacking and spring bulbs

Much as I enjoy photgraphing early spring bulbs, getting down to ground level can be a strain on my old bones. Thank goodness for flip out screens on my Olympus cameras which means I only have to bend. Thanks also for built in focus stacking which allows me to generate more detailed images with nicely blurred backgrounds.  It did require a nice still day and, fortunately, last Monday provided.  Here's some recent results, all taken at The Garden House.

Chionodoxa forbesii

Narcissus 'Rip van Winkle'

Scilla bifolia

Trillium chloropetalum 'Rubrum'


All taken with either the 40-150mm f2.8 or the 60mm macro, my lenses of choice for plant portraiture.
