Bog-standard bluebottle

Post by Beatsy »

A bit hazy in parts, but getting closer to avoiding editing in post (a goal).

Pmax stack of 270 images on FF taken with a 5x Mitty at 3.275x. For faster capture and stacking I doubled the step length to 30 microns (instead of the usual 15) and down-sampled the exported frames by 50% prior to running them through Zerene.

Hi Beatsy,

Super details!

Curious if that was cropped or shot as presented?

Thanks Robert. Tiny bit of crop to get rid of a small row of "streakies" at one edge, but pretty much as shot really.
