Spiral Photography Highlights

[@rommiemex9532]

Omg, the alt key key let's use a centre anchor for selections and shapes! I've struggled for so long! Thanks Gavin!

[@patprop74]

What a wonderful day! Mr. Hoey posting a video!!! YAY

[@alistairneilson7386]

Great to see the WEIR, Cathcart pressure gauge as a prop.. will get one from the store and try it. Well done

[@250GTOAJ]

Hi Gavin and Sam interesting video i am going to give the light spirograph a try. Thanks and have a good weekend.

[@GavinHoey]

Go for it Alan 💫

[@acraftman2823]

Love the Gavster!

[@Betterworldforyou.]

We missed you mate . As always you are the best teacher.

[@guerradigital]

I love your pictures, techniques and talent. Greetings from Mexico City.

[@fernanddurler4709]

Wonderful creativity as always Gavin..thanks again!👍

[@murrylee3735]

Love the way you teach, I have learned a lot from your tutorials, thanks.

[@pattymattes7124]

Thank you for sharing this. I am very happy you are using the Interfit light. I bought into that system almost two years ago and have not regretted it. I have not seen many photographers use them. So I was happy to see you use the LED. I was wondering about that light as I have the Honeybadger and S1 monolights. I just love your videos!!!

[@GavinHoey]

Thanks Patty. The Badger Beam is the first Interfit light I used and it's already the best battery powered LED light I've tried (and I've tested dozens of LED lights in recent years). I think it's a keeper 👍

Love the content as always! Lucky to have Sam BTS. I imagine these would be near impossible to do without her.

[@GavinHoey]

Hi Robbie. Without a producer, these would be VERY different. Sam monitors our audio, changes camera angles, keeps an eye on the upload data, fires the questions to me and helps keep me on track. Utterly indispensable!

[@canpin]

As always, Gavin always deliver great videos!

[@wullieg7269]

The washer is genius!,you solved the prob.

[@GavinHoey]

Simple solutions are often the best 👍

[@dunnymonster]

Brilliant Gavin 👍

[@wilbmoore]

I love this. I have some ideas for this Gavin. Thanks as always.

[@cosmo0080]

[@tonybell1597]

Excellent stuff Gavin, great lockdown activity 😁

[@galelights129]

As always Gavin - Totally Brilliant!

I dont mean to be so off topic but does anybody know a trick to get back into an instagram account?? I was dumb forgot my account password. I love any tips you can offer me.

[@kyeterrance6288]

@Edwin Zaid Instablaster :)

[@edwinzaid810]

@Kye Terrance Thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site through google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff atm. I see it takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

[@edwinzaid810]

@Kye Terrance It did the trick and I now got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D Thank you so much you saved my account :D

[@kyeterrance6288]

@Edwin Zaid No problem xD

[@AppelmoesArtandPhotography]

Nice! I’m gonna try that website out! We have an old pocket watch that once belonged to the great grandfather of my husband, I think it’s perfect for this! ☺️

[@clphotography]

Gavin Hoey is fantastic.

[@mapenharbel]

... the good times are back !

[@ahmedalazzawi8268]

Nice shot

[@MikeJamesMedia]

Fun stuff, Gavin! I started doing these on film, in the 1970s, and we used to call them "physiograms". I thought I'd add that in lieu of putting gels on your flashlight, you can also simply hold them over the camera lens. This lets you easily change to more than one color, if you like, during the creation of a single exposure. And, since the exposure is so long, adding and removing the gels won't show in the final exposure. Thanks again, and take care!

[@GavinHoey]

Hi Mike. 70's beats me. I did my first one for Digital Photo Magazine only about 20 years ago! In the full live session I touched on gelling the lens. Unless you use glass gels expect a fair amount of distortion and loss of sharpness but yes, it's possible.

[@MikeJamesMedia]

@@GavinHoey You're right of course, Gavin, and I should've mentioned that I used glass filters, and not separate ("krinkly") gels!

[@kirstyhepworth7343]

Fantastic and funny too

[@GavinHoey]

Thanks Kirsty. I only get to see the live comments AFTER the session but I always see you joining in. Thanks for your continuing support 👍

[@kirstyhepworth7343]

@@GavinHoey your most welcome

[@mrdev9843]

Excellent

[@GavinHoey]

Thanks 👍

[@richardmendoza4389]

Hmmm...makes me wonder if I could pull off the same effect using fireworks sparklers outdoors...& will definitely have to try that Spiralysis app out! Thanks for that heads up!

[@GavinHoey]

Go for it Richard!

[@tomt8277]

Amazing as always :-)

[@Strongbear2013]

Excellent tutorial Gavin. The barometer spiral at the end reminds me of the opening titles of Doctor Who (the Peter Capaldi version). Sam seems to have quite a few artistic and technical skills. Is she an artist or something in that field by any chance? How about having a tutorial one day with her teaching us how to make props and you doing the producing/ monitoring?

[@StephenBoyd21]

Hi Gavin, Didn't you do something very similar a few years back using a photoshop plugin? Just found it, 8 years ago. WOW, times flies.

[@bootybandy]

Yes, the Droste Effect. Is that still on Photoshop now?

[@GavinHoey]

I did indeed Stephen but sadly that plug in only worked with Photoshop CS5 😞

[@GavinHoey]

@@bootybandy Sadly not Brian. It was an experimental project that only ever worked in Photoshop CS5 😞

[@baybarkphoto8386]

When you set your initial focus for the Spirograph light what exactly did you focus on? Assumedly the stationary torch tip? Does it even matter at F11 or F16? Very inspiring BTW.

[@1987productions]

👍👍👍

[@michaelganner1581]

I've been trying this and I'm not getting a spirograph , is it due to the weight , has my setup is very light ?

Hello, could you add subtitles next time?

Great ideas but got a fright when I heard a voice behind the camera
