Those titles with a star * are either Highly commended or Commendation. Well done.

Peter Stickler sends this—
*Depth of field is extremely limited at close focusing distances;*
*there is a way around this – Put your camera on a tripod, set the
aperture to about f16, photograph the image while focusing on the front,
the middle ground and then the rear.*
*Download a program called CombineZM (which is free) and follow the
instructions for stacking the images.*
*The program automatically selects the sharpest part of all the images.*
*When your satisfied – flatten the image.*
