Thanks Helen. I’m enjoying exploring this style, definitely going to be shooting more of it in the new year.

Thanks very much for the sub. I enjoyed creating this, next week someone is going to win the print. Hope you are able to watch. It’s the Christmas special

I am interested in this. I was curious about the aperture you landed on. I thought of a wide aperture for less depth of field but then thought that it could lose too much detail and then thought maybe F6.3-F8 might give a better balance. What did you use in your example? Would you use that again or try a different one?

[@davepeckphotography]

I don’t think it really matters Philip as it’s blended so much but I used f8 so that I could get a shutter speed I could hand hold easily enough (which was 1/125). I would happily stick on P actually but I was in manual do left it there. The most important thing is to try and keep the subject the same size. I used the grid lines in camera to help with this. Keeping a constant aperture and focal length meant that the perspective stayed the same. Thanks for watching, I’ll do another video of the technique in a month or so.
