These were captured hand-held using natural light in our garden last week using a Panasonic G9 and an Olympus 60mm macro. The third and fifth were raw stills captured using aperture bracketing (which with one shutter press captures one image each from f/2.8 to f/22) so during selection/post processing I could choose the one which had the balance between subject focus coverage and background rendition that I liked best. The other six used focus racked 6K video to provide JPEGs for focus stacking.
The stills were processed with Silkypix, Lightroom and DeNoise AI. The videos were processed with Helicon Focus, Lightroom and DeNoise AI. #7 also had a round trip from Lightroom to Photoshop and back to clean up a couple of stacking artefacts that I found easier to handle in Photoshop than with Helicon Focus' retouching tools.
There are 1300 pixel high versions of these images and some more images from the session in this album at Flickr.
