During the pandemic of 2020 I tried to spend most of my time at home and taking photos around the yard. We have a very beautiful collection of desert roses with lots of colors. This my main focus of art this year. Many of the close-up images were taken with a Celestron digital microscope. Most of the flower are only 1.5 inches wide so I was able to get really close to them. In order to get as much of the image in focus I am using a technique of focus stacking with as many as 160 images combined to create a single image.

Many of the images were photographed in stereo so that I could use my stereoscopes to view them. I ma enjoying the world of stereography this year as well.
