Using Focus Stacking on Landscapes for Extreme
Depth of Field
Follow this link.
Focus stacking is a technique typically used in macro
shots to achieve a large depth of field. It’s a relatively
simple concept: take many images focused at slightly
different distances and combine the sharp portions to
a single image in post. This 6-minute video from
landscape photographer Mark Denney will show you
how to utilise the technique in landscape photography.
