One of the most common struggles when using a wide angle lens for landscape photography is trying to get your entire scene in perfectly sharp focus from the foreground to the mid-ground and all the way out to the background. The main issue here is when you focus on something in your foreground and your background ends up out of focus, then you focus on your background and your foreground ends up out of focus - so what do you do? In this video, we review a simple yet super powerful technique for landscape photography called Focus Stacking. If you’re not familiar with what focus stacking is, it’s the process of taking a series of photographs with each photo focused at a different area of your composition. Then during your post processing work flow you blend the images together only using the areas of greatest focus from each photo creating a final image that's perfectly sharp and in focus throughout the entire image. I know it sounds a bit complicated, but I promise at the end of this video it will make perfect sense and you’ll feel confident enough to begin testing it yourself on your own landscape photos. I hope the next time you're on location and faced with a challenging composition to capture in complete focus that you'll try the Focus Stacking process in this video. Once you test it out a couple times I think you'll quickly become comfortable with this powerful technique and begin using it more often then you would have ever imagined.
