"Macro Focus Stacking: Mushroom and Wildflower Shot"

Today I went back to wander around the small garden area around the village, armed with a camera and macro lens, ready to capture small wonders that are rarely seen by the naked eye. The results of today's exploration were quite satisfying with three interesting objects that I managed to photograph.

The first object I found was a small mushroom. Its size was even smaller than my little finger! Before shooting with the macro lens, I had time to take a picture of its original appearance from a normal viewing distance.

As I moved the camera closer, the extraordinary details of this mushroom began to become apparent—the smooth texture of its cap and slender stem really stood out against the morning dew that still covered the surrounding ground. It was like seeing a small world hidden beneath our feet.

Then, as I continued my journey, I found a beautiful blue wildflower. This flower is from the species Stachytarpheta cayennensis. Its soft blue color contrasts with the green of the surrounding leaves. With a macro lens, I was able to capture the fine details of the flower petals, complete with tiny pollen grains glistening in the morning sunlight. This wildflower really exudes its own charm amidst the silence of nature.

The last object is a flower that we have often seen, namely the chicken dung flower. Although often underestimated, with the help of my macro lens, the hidden beauty of this flower looks very amazing. The texture of its layered petals and the combination of yellow and orange in the middle make this flower look alive and full of energy. As if this flower wants to convey that behind its simplicity, there is extraordinary beauty if we look at it from a different angle.

These three objects, each with their own charm, seemed to transport me into a stunning miniature world of nature.
