Nice shot.

btw.. the second posted picture.. only crop was to a standard format... no crop to enhance image. That is the actual size I shot with my macro focus stack... a LOT of images in that stack!

Crop to enhance you mean like going over 100%? I never go over 100 because then the sharpness is $#!+

Btw, I wanna get into focus stacking as well, do you use a rail or is this hand held? I am trying to do handhelds this sharp with my 180mm and its impossible. At 1:1 I can even go up to 1/250 shutter and its still blurry as all hell. I am thinking about picking up a focusing rail for my tripod
