Wonderful macro with those hairy features and a fine metallic texture, perfectly TF FTW.

Oh yes, this has quite a punch. Interesting looking back, less hairy more like it's fluid with floating bugs moving around.

If you use them for pies, they'll make a lot of noise when they begin to singe

Stunning shadows, and I love the POV here.

Workflow was Rawtherapee for basic/usual adjustments to the batch of shots and to make downsized tif's that would stitch faster. Tried Hugin for kicks (first time in a long time) but it was a mess (as it usually is when I use Hugin.. Always hoping I'll figure out how to use Hugin better but it never happens). Switched over to M-ICE and it worked well as usual, but with the usual sharpness loss in the resulting image that I always notice when using that app. Then into Gimp just to use Nik-Sfx from within.

remember it's effective 18mm fov.. also feels lazier because with the 4:3 ratio as much motivation to switch to portrait orientation

no IR.. just dark sky'd the sliders in Nik-Sfx

Crikey, my mind's struggling a bit with this one - six horizontals @ 9mm. Very well stitched - rawtherapee? and all those lines are inviting me deeper into the image.

Wow what a grand shadow play! Love the inverted vees formed by the ladders and the softer shadows from more distant objects are nicely complementary. Add all the sharp angles and the super contrast and you've won me. Easy Fave.

IR? Either way, a very starkly dramatic shot, nicely composed with the WA.
