Skeleton

This is a close up detail of a cactus skeleton. I am a bit embarrassed to say I stacked 25 images here. I was extremely close to it and you can't really tell but it is really undulating.

For some reason I had to do some pretty heavy compressing on these to get them to the right size.

Comments & suggestions welcome!

Excellent image, Eirini. I love it when abstract images are made on natural flora. The one is superb. The stacked detail couldn't be any better.

This could well pass as a landscape shot from a satellite. Well seen and processed. The compression problems are due to all of the fine detail, the jpeg process doesn't like fine details.

I love this - particularly in the larger version. Superb stack and photography for my tastes.
