I loved taking these easy but beautiful macro photos at home (Flower and focus tutorial)

[@AndrewLanxonPhotography]

Who wants to try this easy project themselves?

[@metalmick99]

I certainly will. Got some anemones growing in my front garden so I won't even need to visit a florist's. Thanks for another wonderful clip where your passion and thoughtfulness shines through.

This was sooo helpful! I've been putting off buying lighting because I have been afraid of off-camera lighting and focus stacking. But you make it look doable and, most importantly, FUN! I'm going to go ahead and purchase my lighting setup now! Thank you!! :)

[@berkletheclownsvideos2461]

This is an excellent idea. I can’t wait to go buy some flowers and start photographing them with my new macro lens.

[@sarahmitchell7390]

Great video. You have inspired me to "have a go".

[@AndrewLanxonPhotography]

That’s great to hear! Thanks for watching!

[@mellimair4352]

Thank you for the really nice inspiration. I go right now and get some sunflowers.

[@robintaylor7374]

great video. thanks andrew

[@tamarawilliams3699]

Awesome shots and great idea for doing some things at home. Thanks Andrew.

[@AndrewLanxonPhotography]

Thank you so much,Tamara! Do you think this is one you'll try yourself?

[@tamarawilliams3699]

@@AndrewLanxonPhotography I do think I will try this type of macro. I absolutely enjoyed the idea and the video. I loved your final shots and I am already thinking about different flowers as well. 🌺

[@Kimspics59]

You explain everything g so well Andrew& I find your voice so relaxing. Thank you for sharing this. It’s given me loads of inspiration. X💕

[@DanaBphotog]

Love how these came out. I just got a macro lens so I’m definitely looking for inspiration and this video helped.

[@gary.kenyon]

Great shots.

[@AndrewLanxonPhotography]

Thanks Gary!

[@judilecompte9377]

Andrew, you’re quickly becoming my favorite KZbinr! My husband gave me a macro lens for Christmas and you’ve given me the ambition to try something at home. THANKS! Love the images, BTW! I have a Z7 so I’m looking forward to trying the auto focus.

[@terenceclarke6975]

Thanks Andrew, for a great video, did you see the small insect above the whitish drop at 16:22.

[@ikamcast303]

I've been doing a lot of macro the last year or so but I usually try garden shops or the local outdoor mall hanging basket. This I can use buying an assortment or bouquet a week and being able to take my time composing the shot with a handheld light flashlight or torch to come from behind. I have tried focus stacking but not on a tripod and with a remote. Inspired again...thanks.

[@villaalicia8585]

This has inspired me. What mode mode are you using?

[@daveknight9381]

Excellent video Andrew, what is the make model of the mini tripod and clamp please.? Many thanks Dave.

[@electricsheep1963]

Thanks for a really good video, great ideas to try out. It is interesting how much you can see the flowers moving at around 11:00 minutes in the video, I am interested was the tripod leg touching the table, or is it just movement from the floor, as it is not like you are moving that much ?

[@sharonmiller7823]

Beautiful images. Definitely going to give this a go.

[@AndrewLanxonPhotography]

Thanks Sharon, good luck giving it a go, it's a really fun project to try at home!

[@victorthenotsogreat1975]

I am doing it the same way the video shows with a Canon R10 and a Canon RF 100 400 m with 2 close up lens and photo stacking up to a 100 pictures.

[@jimkok1957]

Can I use my 24-70 or 70-200?

[@snoogly]

Lovely stuff. I really appreciate what you do, as it’s not devoted to insect macro macro. The last time I left a comment was when I was critical of aggressive post processing - but that was really due to my being color blind!

[@AndrewLanxonPhotography]

Thanks so much, Snoogly, I really appreciate you taking the time to engage with my videos!

[@andyblessett1282]

I picked up some 'subjects' to photograph......my neighbour was not happy!!! 😂😂 Great tutorial Boss thank you. (Just kidding, I didn't really steal anything honest!)

[@AndrewLanxonPhotography]

Haha don't worry Andy, I won't tell them!

[@DavidTpitCabrera]

Really nice

[@JuJuGrafiks]

Is that the RF or EF 100mm?

[@mike-js2510]

Andrew, what is the power of your light? Just curious!

[@AndrewLanxonPhotography]

Hi Mike, I'm using an Interfit LM8 LED light here which is a 100W light and I'm using it at max power, so it's chucking out quite a bit of light!

[@gdv2268]

R6 has an focus stacking function ? Are you sure ? Please make a video about that, I don t find it in the menu.

[@AndrewLanxonPhotography]

Yep, it's called focus bracketing and it takes a series of imaging, automatically moving the focus through the frame. you still need to merge them yourself later on though. I'm actually using an R5 here, but I checked the R6 has this function too.

[@whitefatdude]

When photostacking do you move just the focuspoint or do you move the camera ? i do like your videos. Keep´em coming

[@AndrewLanxonPhotography]

I usually keep the camera fixed and twist the focus barrel. Thanks for watching!
