I don't know this technique at all, I have never tested it before (as my approach on macro is far from being pure macro). But your photo looks stunning to me and the head shows so many details, it's awesome.
I don't know your starting point, but from this photo, this looks more than promissing.
What kind of lens do you use? And how do you edit your photo afterwards?
Thanks
Yohanna_D. I use Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 macro lens. Basis the instructions I received from this group, I downloaded Helix and Zerene software for focus staking macro images. In this shot, I used a dead Hornet
, and took multiple shots with different focal points. I stacked 10 images to get this output. Using Zerene application/software, I got the images aligned to get the DoF and details. Post that I did editing to adjust brightness, contrast, color correction, noise reduction and additional sharpness. This is pretty much what I did.
