Glowing Mushrooms - Photography Tutorial

[@carcus566]

Thank you for making this informative and entertaining video. The trick with the test button on the flash was for me a wonderful technique that I am now using. 👍

[@StewartWoodArt]

Glad it helped!

[@ali3n_7acing]

Awesome video! Love your process of the glowing effect of the mushrooms 🍄

[@NooneyTroll]

Out takes had me rolling with laughter, magic mushrooms lol. Great video too.

[@cctvmanbob]

This must be one of the best tutorials I have found ! I forage a lot and I am also a photographer . I love the style of the shots and want to start taking my own. The explanations of timings / d.o.f are very helpful.. Thanks ..

[@StewartWoodArt]

Thank you.

[@stefanwilkens]

That is a fantastic feature on the canon app (focus stepping) - I wish other manufacturers would include this in their remote applications.

[@moshesalama]

Beautiful step by step tutorial! I use the beautiful backgrounds i bought from your site on my macro shots, now it’s time to go out to a forest and try your method, maestro. Thank you

[@StewartWoodArt]

Thank you so much 😊

[@moshesalama]

@@StewartWoodArt dear Stewart, I use the SONY e-mount system (both APSC and FF) and unlike the CANON or NIKON system, none of my cameras (to the best of my knowledge none in the Sony system) feature the built-in FOCUS BRACKETING setting...Aron Anderson showed a focus bracketing tutorial for SONY users, w/Imaging Edge Desktop remote + B8Stack freeware App, but it entails carrying a Mac laptop to the field. any ideas?

[@StewartWoodArt]

You'll have to use the first method I showed, the old way of manual focus bracketing.

[@TimvanderLeeuw]

Thanks for this very nice tutorial video!

[@StewartWoodArt]

You are welcome!

[@MicaelWidell]

Beautiful photos!

[@StewartWoodArt]

Thank you, my friend... your turn! lmao

[@jameshathaway2636]

Inspired me to go have a go, had a few hours to kill waiting for the wife and found a nice little woodland near by, quite happy with manually adjusting focus - have a manual macro lens so cant use the bracketing feature. The stack worked well and liking the result, I didnt focus in the right spot when creating the glow so it wont paint in nicely - next weeks project!

[@StewartWoodArt]

That's great, well done!

[@danram69]

wicked work mate you sound stafford way

[@StewartWoodArt]

I am thank you.

[@bmichaud1000]

Great tutorial! Thank you!

[@StewartWoodArt]

Thank you

[@guidosinram]

Wonderful video. I love these little works of art and I can't wait to go looking for them myself.

[@DominikMarczuk]

Fantastic video, Stewart. One of my favourites on the channel. I remember watching this video last year but I didn't have the gear needed to try this technique out. This year, I do. And I know what I'll be doing this weekend if weather permits.

[@leemaisfield]

That’s amazing mate, I have been wanting to do mushrooms for ages & this may have inspired me to go out. Would love to see your work flo in post.

[@StewartWoodArt]

Thank you mate, get out there and have fun!

[@WestCoastVivi]

Beautiful work, Stewart! 👌🏼

[@StewartWoodArt]

Glad you like it!

[@imogeninnit]

Thank you for sharing your knowledge, fantastic quality video, can’t wait to give this a go & see more of your work 🍂📸

[@minb1217]

Gorgeous! I love fungi. Magical stuff! I have mobility issues so getting on my knees in the woods isn’t an option. However - I’m going to see if I can get some exotic mushrooms from the shop and try this technique indoors. Worth a try eh

[@StewartWoodArt]

Have a look on amazon as well for "grow your own mushrooms"

[@mrwates]

Fabulous images! & Well explained :)

[@StewartWoodArt]

Thank you so much 😀

[@NettiGaming]

Lovely video dude! Well done

[@StewartWoodArt]

Thanks mate.

[@philgreaves1]

Nice one Stewart. 🍄👍

[@StewartWoodArt]

Thanks 👍

[@tysonator5433]

Very informative video Stewart, and when my R7 arrives I will be using the Canon app to focus stack, what a bloody good feature that is ! I also own the 100 mm f2.8L IS USM lens and it is very sharp, plus I also use it as portrait lens !

[@StewartWoodArt]

Glad it was helpful! The Canon EOS R7 has built in focus bracketing ;)

[@franm1721]

Brilliant as always, could you point me in the way of some macro backgrounds that would suit this type of photography.....thank you.

[@rivieramacro5240]

nice !

[@StewartWoodArt]

Thanks!

[@ggwildlife]

excellent as always Stewart and stay away from the magic mushrooms 🤣🤣🤣

[@StewartWoodArt]

Absolutely

[@dhphotography644]

In Australia we have ghosties. Biluminecent mushrooms. Always a good night when you find a cluster of them.

[@StewartWoodArt]

I'd love to see them :)

[@tanyaliepins31]

Brilliant vlog and smashing images , I've been doing a few of these this week, please could I ask how do you get a particle effect? I've not heard of this before but love the effect .

[@StewartWoodArt]

Thanks, I just photographed flour 🤪🤪🤪

[@diegovela6791]

Fantastico

[@StewartWoodArt]

Thanks

[@shazzam532]

Great tutorial on Macro photography thank you. I was on the verge of ordering the Laowa macro lens until you said your focus ring was defective. Such a shame, it looked like a great lens. Now subscribed, thanks again.

[@Sasygrl31]

My mind is blown. This was such an amazing video! I also had NO idea about the camera app. I have tremors so focus stacking has always been a challenge, this app helps! So much good information packed into the video. Thank you!! Love the bloopers too. LOL

[@StewartWoodArt]

Glad it was helpful!

[@barryashenhurst2071]

Stewart, why did you focus on the front of the mushie, not the centre, for the torch shot?>

[@StewartWoodArt]

I honestly can’t remember lol

[@christophstoebich]

cool

[@StewartWoodArt]

Thanks

[@sandram9691]

❤️❤️❤️😍😍😍 beautifull

[@StewartWoodArt]

Thank you :)

[@BrainboxOfficial_1]

Hit up 👆👆the handle. He ships safely 🍄💊🔌....

[@CornishMotorcycleDiaries]

Hi Stewart, really good stuff. I already had the focus stacking, but the other things were really useful. Ps, I've un-subbed on this Channel (CMD), but don't worry I've subscribed over on my Photography channel ChromagraphPhotoArt. It's just that I'm trying to keep the things I need to access in each channel separate, ie photography and motorcycle stuff.

[@fredericktennant9151]

Magic Mushrooms yea, oh photos and not picking them lol

[@StewartWoodArt]

Yeah, oh well. maybe next time!

[@BrainboxOfficial_1]

Hit up 👆👆the handle. He ships safely 🍄💊🔌....

[@-WhizzBang-]

OMG!!!! My canon 90D has built in Focus Bracketing, but it only works with Canon Macro lenses, the feature doesn't work with my Sigma Macro, so I have been manually making focus stacks , and here the Canon Camera connect app had this feature ALL ALONG, which works with any lens! DOHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!😖

[@StewartWoodArt]

Lol, glad I could help 😀
