This cactus was pin sized when we got it now 10 years later it has flowered for first time. As it is raining today I took a snap to share with you on A1 with 24-105mm lens. I could not log on today so thank you Eric for helping me to find our new home and thank you Chris for providing our new home.

That’s a lovely composition Graham and you have controlled dof very nicely. I am surprised that f10 at 80mm gives that much dof. Was it focus stacked or did you stand back and crop?

I use to love my Canon RT back in the film days. It had a dof setting where you simply prefocused on the nearest point, set it, then prefocused on the farthest dof point and set that. Reframe and fire ……the camera set the fstop to give you the required dof for the focal lens and subject distances.

I miss those lazy days ;-)
