This I must try without Zerene Stack. Not equipped for that software.

Very nice shots.

Lovely colors and forms!

Sumguy01, in another thread grgh has indicated that he would like to see individual frames from at least some stacked results.

Any chance of you posting a couple of those here?

I would be particularly interested to see one at each magnification. Thanks!

I would like to see a single shot of your slide included in your posting, before you work your stacking procedures,

I do not need the different magnification, as that will come from the views and results that you have posted.

Guess I want to see,if what you start with, compares with what I see down my scope and that will give me part of the inspiration to go forward with my hobby.

They are lovely shots.
Well done

Thank you all for the nice comments.
This set was from a few weeks ago and I have only kept the phots that I considered to be good ones and have deleted the rest. Sorry I am not able to provide any that are not stacked.
This subject was on a slide with no cover glass so the crystal formation had varying depth. Stacking the photos was the best way to have more crystal formations in focus in the photos I consider to be good ones.
If you check out Zerene Stacker home page you will see they offer a free 30 day trial.
I tried it out and it did not take long to see that it was a great help in improving most my micro photos.
Just so you know most my photos get some cropping and post processing They all need some help to look presentable.
Even an amazing looking women looks better with lipstick on.
So all my pics wear lipstick
