I'm also going to have to try again. My major attempt at focus stacking
was ruined by a similar problem. It wasn't a breeze but wilting that
caused the problem. I had clipped a small crabtree branch full of
blossoms off the neighbor's tree. I inserted the branch in a vase of
water. By the time I had completed the half dozen or so exposures the
leaves and blossoms had wilted enough that it became impossible to merge
the individual images. I was truly amazed by the speed of the wilting
which was otherwise unnoticeable to me.
