I've been mucking about practicing focus stacking in photoshop and using the DSLR. What better excuse to channel my inner child and make little homages to scenes from The Railway Series?

 

"I see Daisy's left the milk again..."

"I'll have to make a special journey with it I suppose. Anyone would think I've nothing to do."

"It was raining hard. Water swirled under my boiler. I couldn't see where I was going, but I struggled on."
"Oh, Percy, you are brave."
"Well, it wasn't anything really. Water's nothing to an engine with determination."

"What are you engines doing here?"

Thomas is a tank engine. He has six small wheels, a short stumpy funnel, a short stumpy boiler, and a short stumpy dome.

Very nice scenes. How many layers are you using for the stacking? I usually use 2-3. I'd like to try more but that doesn't seem to work well for me.

Thanks Mikkel, I used about 5-6 layers, hadn't considered using less so could give that a go.

 I usually just take one with the backscene in focus, then the middle ground, and then the front.  Not sure what works best in Photoshop though, your 5-6 layers could be better for that (I use Zerene stacker).

Daisy's a Met-Camm design, right? Plans to produce a 101-based bubble car? ;)

Yes I think in the original stories that's right :) I'll be backdating her arrival to 1940, when she is purchased third hand after the closure of a little light railway in Somerset. Remotored with a Gardner diesel engine after the way, replacing the petrol one.
