01 The Jazz Man

It was a windy day so it gave me a chance to try out something for the shake scenario. This is an 8 image stack. One image was shot in focus and the others were shot with a slower shutter and layered together to give a blurred but shaky background. That left me with 2 stacked images. I erased part of the overlaid background to reveal some of the in-focus image.

1/400s f/6.3 at 250.0mm iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

That's better. I uploaded the newer version.

Jim I think you might be right. Tomorrow I'm going to blend/soften the lower part of the stem better.
I can see now, the lower knuckles are what's distracting me.

I just tried a quick and dirty attempt on it and it's better.
Thank you. I'll fix that tomorrow.

Mick - a wild thought. Maybe the lower half or so of the in-focus stem needs a little bit of blur. Just some.

Thanks. I find it kinda amusing but there is something I'm not quite happy about with it but I can't see what that is.
Maybe in time, before the comp finishes lol, I'll see what is bugging me with it.

Great idea, and well executed.
