EVENT REGISTRATION WILL END ONE DAY BEFORE THE EVENT TO ELIMINATE LAST MINUTE REQUESTS & THE POTENTIAL CONFUSION REGARDING REQUIRED EMAIL ADDRESSES.

On the day before and again on the day of the workshop you will receive a Zoom link from Fred for the workshop. You will need to copy the Zoom link and paste it into your browser to attend, and you should plan to join 10-15 minutes early to get through any issues you might have.

WHAT: Focus-Stacking is a photographic technique where you take multiple images of a scene focusing on the nearest item in the image and then sequentially focusing farther and farther away until the entire scene has been captured. Software is then used to take the sharpest portions of each image and combine them to create a final image that is sharp everywhere in the image (as opposed to being acceptably sharp). It is used a lot for macro photography but can also be applied to landscape and other photography venues.

WHO IS THIS FOR? This workshop is for anyone who would want to use Focus-Stacking of images to obtain the sharpest possible images.

WILL THIS WORKSHOP BE RECORDED? Yes, the workshop will be recorded, and the recording will be available for you to review whenever you like.

WHY ATTEND? Bert will explain what Focus-Stacking is and how to best take advantage of this photographic technique to achieve the sharpest possible images of the entire photograph. You will learn how to combine these images using either Photoshop or Helicon Focus to achieve the sharpest possible image.

WHAT’S INCLUDED? The online interactive session workshop will be via Zoom. You will be able to ask questions and benefit from other attendee questions. In addition, you will be provided with the online workshop slides in PDF form and a link to an online video copy of the workshop that you can view as often as you like.

WHAT SOFTWARE IS COVERED? Bert will show how to process Focus- Stacked images in Photoshop and Helicon Focus.
