Wouldn’t you like to be able to take close-up or landscape pictures that are tack-sharp? Unleash the superpower of focus stacking to capture breathtaking images with razor-sharp focus from front to back!
Imagine shooting close-up shots of flowers that have incredible detail or insects magnified with perfect clarity. Landscapes bursting with sharpness, from the foreground wildflowers to the distant mountains.
This focus stacking class will equip you with the skills and secrets I've learned over 20 years to master the art of creating the exact depth of field you desire.
The only software you need is Photoshop although we will also demonstrate using Helicon Focus.
You too can achieve stunning detail in macro, landscape, and product photography.
Participants are provided with a copy of the PowerPoint slides and the presentation will be recorded. Attendees are provided with a private link of the recording to review as often as they like.

| - What is focus stacking and why do it?
