Excellent shots like always. Gotta ask, are these focus stacked? If not how do you get them so sharp at such magnification? The depth of field would be tiny!

Thanks
Yes they are all focus stacked - same method I use for flower dewdrop refractions but no flower. Without focus stacking it's virtually impossible to get the drop and the refraction image both in good focus.
like the au naturelle shots quite a bit, particularly taken with #1. #2 has a bit of an odd stacking focal plane drop off on the right-most drop's blad of grass just under the drop.
Amy- your are right about #2 - I did use combinez5 for these rather than hand stacking them and it is not good at slightly OOF detail but I decided not to correct it.
