Tiny Tuesday - Orchid Anatomy

In search of a super macro subject I chose to shot the reproductive organs of an orchid bloom. To do this I used extension tubes. and a micro camera positioned. I ended up with a 20 layer stack to merge though looking to the  auto masking of the layers I could probably have managed just as well with maybe only five layers. I particularly wanted fine detail so that I could clearly see the separate organs :- petals , sepals ,throat, lip (labellum) and column. This month of  unspecified challenges for Tiny Tuesday has lead me to create ever more difficult subject challenges,
