The following toy dinosaur was photographed against a pure white background (255, 255, 255) using the “Meet Your Neighbours” (MYN) technique. The toy is 2.96 cm long.
11 photographs were taken using a Fujifilm X-T3 digital camera, Fujifilm MCEX-11 extension tube, and Fujinon XF80mm macro lens. A single focus point was moved to 11 places on the toy.
The photos were edited using Apple Aperture, exported as TIFF files, then loaded into Adobe Photoshop CC 2017 in order to create the focus stack.
It’s been a while since I created a focus-stacked composite image. All I can say is it’s a good thing I keep good notes related to the experimentation that I do in my “photo studio,” because I had forgotten many of the steps in the workflow!
