In the end, I did get enough images to produce a really sharp final result with focus stacking techniques so it can be done when the subject or camera is moving.
My guess is that you didn't have a tripod hand at the time, but, given the alternative, why not just use a tripod? If you still need focus stacking then by all means use it but why make the job harder than necessary?
As these are reasonable sharp images, were you looking for C&C on something other than the focus stacking technique?
