Rode the ATV around in the mountains yesterday w/ T3i + OM21. Very versatile little lens for everything from flower closeups to sweeping 'scapes.
Have never used focus stack or blend for landscape. Did you do in in PS? I usually stop down and use hyperfocal distance. I suppose it can avoid diffraction softening in some circumstances.
A few days ago did a 6 image focus stack wiith Combine ZP using the Zuiko 135mm macro.

Those trees are incredibly well rendered, especially relating to the color. How did you do it? My zuikos never have such good color.
Just a bit of contrast & saturation boost, and some sharpening, from the trees down was all in shadow, so I had to boost the shadows some, and darken the rest.
This was done in LR3 on a crappy laptop display that never has the correct brightness level,
tilting the display an inch will change the brightness by a stop, so I end up having to check the finished image on 3 other displays to double check it.
