Guest Presentation on Zoom
Macro and Focus Stacking — Presenter Brian Russell
Brian is a dedicated Macro Photographer who uses the focus-stacking method to get the whole subject in sharp focus.
Macro is about seeing detail in an image normally not detected in our everyday lives with the naked eye. Therefore, imperative for the subject to be in sharp focus throughout.
