Laowa 25mm - Extreme Macro in the Garden with a Scholastic Approach

In this video I'll show you a selection of extreme macros I captured of several subjects in our garden with the Laowa 25mm ultra macro lens. I also briefly describe each species so you can learn a little more about them.

Mate!. What fantastic images and the lighting too. That little spider is absolutely cute.

[@peterviragphoto]

Thanks champ, just finished watching your video when I saw your comments haha.

[@peterfritzphoto]

Amazing images, Pete. You’re right about the lighting - those images of the ant look so good with the smooth light from the LED panel. I love the way you compose your images, too. Clearly a lot of thought and care goes into them. 👍

[@peterviragphoto]

Thanks a lot mate, much appreciated. Have a great weekend!:)

Awesome shots Peter and great video mate. Lens does the job it seems. Thanks for sharing buddy cheers 🍻 📸🙏

[@peterviragphoto]

Cheers mate. It certainly is one of my favourite lenses but difficult to use at times. Enjoy your evening buddy!

Another informative video Peter. Congratulations 👍🇦🇺👏

[@peterviragphoto]

Thanks a lot Alex!

[@FXWalesAnnaAlf]

Hi Peter I think that the jumping spider here and that I've seen before on your videos has got to be the cutest thing ever and I'm scared of spiders ! The close up photos are amazing to see . The other photos here too are so clear to see these creatures and how they look. Great video. Have a lovely weekend :) 👍 ~ Anna

[@peterviragphoto]

Thanks a lot Anna, very kind of you. Glad you like the jumping spiders:)) Have a great weekend too! Cheers

[@NBNatureTrailvan]

Such gorgeous images The beauty of these tiny creatures is highlighted by your pictures Peter The colours are stunning 😍 Even the millipedes are gorgeous! Great film again Peter 👏👏👏

[@peterviragphoto]

Thanks a lot mate, much appreciated!😀 Have a great weekend!

[@NBNatureTrailvan]

@@peterviragphoto you too 👍👍👍

[@d.k.1394]

Keep it up

[@peterviragphoto]

👍

[@Chris-NZ]

Fabulous images Peter, I think my favourite are those hairy spiders with multiple eyes and thank god those ants aren’t the size of cattle or even a dog that would be darn right scary😀

[@peterviragphoto]

Haha thanks mate! Yes, they sure would be scary as hell:)

[@forced_perspective]

Spectacular images using that lens. It's really hard to use.. good job

[@peterviragphoto]

Thanks bud!

[@MainlightDrone]

I feel so smart after I watch one of your videos. How are you able to identify all of these crazy bugs!?! I really appreciate the hard work you put into all of your videos. The exposure settings were interesting too. I'm always watching the ads. I assume your channel is monetized now?

[@peterviragphoto]

Hey mate, thanks a lot, much appreciated! There is an app called iNaturalist that is very helpful with the identification. It normally gives you a good starting point but there are also taxonomy experts there in a variety of fields ( in my case entomology ) who can help or narrow down the identification to species level. Yes, been monetised for several months now. See you’re too, congrats!🥳🥳

[@MainlightDrone]

@@peterviragphoto I'll be sure to watch the ads, like I am now while I'm responding to this. lol I remember some time ago you said you weren't going to bother for the $5 per month. hahaha

[@peterviragphoto]

@@MainlightDrone haha thanks & yep…. the money is a joke compared to the time & effort put into these projects but love it so all good:)))

[@pakozdiattila]

Szuper.. hogy végre találtam egy videót ami éppen magyar nyelvű is lehetne...😉 na mindegy valahogy megkűzdök vele és kihámozom belőle a lényeget...

[@peterviragphoto]

Szia Attila! Ha valami nem tiszta, csak kerdezz batran! Ha tudok, segitek:) Buek!😀🥳😉

[@d.k.1394]

Nice

[@peterviragphoto]

Thanks!

[@paulcookphotography]

Outstanding work Peter! Some of these guys look so small! Do you shoot all of these outside or do you capture some of them and bring them inside? Are these things that you can find in your yard or do you have to really go out searching for them? Great stuff as always mate, stunning images of the small world! Hope you are doing well, have a wonderful weekend!

[@peterviragphoto]

Thanks a lot Paul. These are all shot in their natural environment & the subjects in this video were all in our backyard. Sometimes it takes a little bit of time to find them, especially when they are tiny:) Cheers

[@unclebuck5957]

Do like the 24mm or the 90mm macro from laowa

[@peterviragphoto]

I like both but if I had to pick one, I’d fo with the 90mm as it’s more versatile. Cheers

[@lewis3774]

How did you focus stack these spiders/ insects so well considering the subjects were live and moving?

[@peterviragphoto]

Hey Lewis. This tutorial might help: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mpOcYZppnMR3j7csi=09kVCGeTwX0EZSPw Cheers

Thanks!

[@laurent_Gournet]

Bonsoir 🙂 Je vais bientôt recevoir un Nikon Zf et je me demande quel objectif prendre entre le Nikon MC 105mm et le Laowa 5X. Le Laowa a un meilleur grossissement mais c’est sûrement plus difficile à utiliser pour un débutant? C’est possible à main levée ou il faut un trépieds? Merci 🙂

[@peterviragphoto]

Salut. Merci pour votre commentaire. si j'étais vous, j'achèterais le Laowa 90 mm car il est plus polyvalent et convivial pour les débutants et permet de prendre des photos CSN jusqu'à un grossissement de 2,5x: www.venuslens.net/product/laowa-90mm-f-2-8-2x-macro-apo/ref/894/ Bonne chance et amusez-vous bien!

[@laurent_Gournet]

@@peterviragphoto d’accord, je vais regarder ça merci! 🙂
