Clean the Sensor




I was playing around with my stacker program again. This time with the stamen/anther of a jonquil/daffodil. Lesson I learned is that you better have a clean sensor. In the first image you can see several lines which relate to dust on the sensor. Its an 18 image stack so the problem is magnified by 18. I did a quick clone out for the second image.
