“Gaudy” bins! I guess those are for efficient sorting!

Do you use the focus stackingcfunction on your Olympus and practical is it waking around. Can you rest your camera on a ledge or wall instead of a tripod?

Gaudy bins are perfect candidates for my photography. I don’t even consider what they are used for LOL.
Not sure why I would use focus stacking? Not of any use for this type of work.
I don’t use a tripod, except for specialized time lapse shooting, if I can’t find a rock or ledge to set my camera on.

I asked ass I am somewhat envious of your camera’s built in capability.

It could, perhaps, be used, not for macro, but a stationary scene like yours, as the sun goes down, when you hardly have enough light!

Then focus stacking might give a well exposed image using a wider aperture.

The store is “Artesenias El Chunche”, presumably Trinkets, Souvenirs and the like.

Chuncha appears similar to the Yiddish word “chuchtka” which means some unnecessary decorative and really worthless thing.

I wonder what the etymology of that Spanish word is!
