NOTE: This image is a focus stacked image consisting of multiple images that were merged using software. As a result, this image underwent digital manipulation which may have included blending, blurring, cloning, and colour and perspective adjustments. As a result of these adjustments, the image content may be slightly different to reality at the points where the images were combined. This manipulation is often required due to lens, perspective, and parallax distortions.
