Seems like there has been much discussion on focus /phot stacking. For the last few weeks I have looked through different methods and software. In my search I came across a photography blog by Ruben Larsson. http://rubenlarsson.blogspot.com/2008/12/merge-photos-with-different-focus.html In his blog he discussed using Combine ZM software for stacking (it's free). He clearly wrote the steps from start to finish. And I have to say, there aren't many and it's fairly simple.

Due to the nature of my job I was unexpectedly out of work from last Christmas until te beginning of May which presented a wonderful opportunity to fill the cold winter days by working on my layout uninterrupted. In that time I feel like I achieved quite a lot on the layout construction itself as well as building structures and whatnot. Like most railroad modelers, I tend to get "on a track" of maybe wiring for a while then when I get bored I shift gears and build a structure or two or maybe work on scenery.

Bonjour Railroad modelers,

This is the ANNELIESVILLE trackplan that I posted on the 'Trackplan Database'.

It's a rural & coastal type of branchline with a rather 'narrow gauge feel' since I love this type of Railroads. Plus the fact that the late Paul Scoles inspired me with his type of 'imaginary' and overall feel. I also tried to follow guidelines & info from Lance Mindheim, to keep things simple and manageable. It's not my first build but it's always a challenge to build in this size.

I left off with the stage of my railroad development having built the benchwork, added foam risers and platforms, fascia, newspaper and tape to prepare for the addition of Woodland Scenics plaster cloth for the mountains.
