Learn how to Stack your Images with Zerene Stacker
Today I’d like to share with you an amazing program called Zerene Stacker. This software will merge a variety of images that are in focus to have one complete single image file in focus. Oh yeah… too much fun!
As we get closer to our subject, we lose focus… frustrating I know, but that’s ok because we have Zerene to help us. Just photograph your subject from the front of your subject and you continue to shoot until you get to the very back of your subject. You may have a couple of images all the way up to hundreds. It really depends on how close you are to your subject.
Below are some photographs I shot by stacking images.
Below is a video for you to help you get started with Zerene Stacker.
Want to get to know the person who developed this wonderful program? Check out the video below, I had a wonderful time chatting with Rik Littlefield, the developer of Zerene Stacker. It’s a show so worth your time. If you have any questions, feel free to ask in the comment section. Here or on Youtube. 🙂
Stacking your work is soooooo much fun! It’s a blast to use Zerene and fun to see your work pop in front of your eyes.

Love the three shots you posted. Each one is totally unique. So, are you taking multiple shots with different focus areas and then blending them? Is that what this software does?
Hi Frank…Yep, that’s what I’m doing. I start from one side of the frame and make that in focus and then keep shooting gradually until I have everything in focus with a variety of shots. I have usually 8-15 images. Next, I take all of the images into Helicon and process them. If I want certain areas blurry again I’ll pick the one image that has the blurred info and paint that back into the pic. Too much fun! I promise…a video will come soon. 🙂
