Beautifully done, Mike.  I like your balance of softness with sharp center details.

Moose motivated me to proceed with another stack of one of our orchids.  I've 
had this orchid over 10 years now--a gift from a patient.
It usually blooms yearly, but never 5 blooms at once before and a 6th is 
getting ready but out of sync with the others.

Here is the whole plant--quick phone shot:

Marnie doesn't like the plant per se, so it is banished to the basement tanks 
after it is done blooming.

It was tough to isolate a dominant bloom but I gave it a go and used a large 
plant to soften the background and a wide aperture, necessitating a deeper 
stack:

I may have missed a few stacking artifacts.  I sometimes stack with two 
contrast thresholds to more quickly fix the halos.

Still stacking, Mike
