    Asiatic lily in the rain

    Went outside in the rain and grabbed this. The anthers quickly split to reveal the yellow pollen, but the rain had made the pollen clump, so I decided to catch this one before they split.

    C&C welcome, as always

    Gorgeous ! Exif says it was shot at f7 ish, but the depth of field seems greater - was it focus stacked ?

    I see you are a fan of the Canon 100mm f2.8 macro too. I've kept mine to use with the Fuji X-T3.

    Thanks. Yes, you have a good eye. Almost all of my flower close-ups and macros are stacked. I am at the wrong computer, so I can't check, but my guess is that this is somewhere in the range of 6 - 10 images.

    It's a great lens. I generally shoot these at f/7 or so to keep the individual images as sharp as I can.
