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.

Hi Seva -- overall a really good job! A couple of things might have improved it: main issue I have is the light on the girls' face -- she has "raccoon eyes". Not very appealing. Also the shadows on her face show lines each side of her nose and under it. Your key light was too steep.
Your edge lights would help the mood if you had gelled them to suggest the city light colors behind them. And made them stronger. The violin should have been tilted toward the key a bit more and held parallel with the man's other arm to complete your design.
The compositing is great -- nice work!
