The process is the same as focus stacking, ie taking a series of photos at different focus planes and then using software to create a composite image using only the in-focus parts. There are several software packages that will do this such as Zerene Stacker, Helicon Focus, even Photoshop. The software creates a "depth map" as it moves through the stack of images, so it knows the relative depth of the in-focus parts it includes in the final image, and can then use this depth map to create variable-angle perspective representations of the image.

Darn that sounds like a MRI the way they slice images. you sure got some awesome photos , I wish I could learn how to easily do coin images. I have some I need to sell on ebay if my health will improve.
