Athens photos
A few shots from the winter of 2025. The last one was inside of the Acropolis Museum. (Unfortunately, I could get everyone to walk exactly where I wanted them to. hahaha)

Focus Stacking ~ New to Me
I am interested in learning Macro/Closeup photography and understanding that Focus Bracketing is a good part of the process, I thought I would give focus stacking a try.

Vintage Lens
Another visit to our garden using a vintage lens (Canon FD 50mm f/1.4) on my Canon R5. NOTE: With this lens the minimum focusing distance is 18" at which point you have 1/4" depth of field.

I do not shoot Architectural Photography myself, but I am an architect, so I can tell you what I noticed from my point of view.. Make sure all vertical lines are exactly vertical. They are slightly off in all of the images. In the third it is obvious you are viewing down and therefore it is ok. The last image is not exactly symmetrical. Most people won't notice these things but they help to get a more harmonic picture.
You're really going for a wide view in these shots, but in my opinion, it may be too wide. Keep the lens and camera level and your verticals will straighten up, but some correction will still be necessary in Lightroom.
It certainly is s colorful place. I think your POV is a bit too high in most of the photos and too low in the exterior shot. Make sure your camera is level or you'll need to do more correction in Lightroom of Photoshop. For the exterior photo I would have done a multiple frame pano instead of using such a wide lens which really distorts the image.
