Perfectly Sharp

I recall owning a Lightroom plugin called Perfectly Clear, which I bought when I knew hardly anything about editing, thinking it would solve all my problems. Of course I never used it and now it costs to upgrade, so I probably never will.

Anyway, I opted for a two shot focus stack, one for the flower and a second for the tree, blended manually in Photoshop. Would be handy if Lightroom could do it! Dealing with all the holes between the leaves was a bit of a pain and made me wish I'd used the auto-blend first.

I love hosta leaves because there are so many curves and surfaces and textures. And the textures contrast nicely with the bark and moss.
