That’s very nice, I have a glass ball like that, maybe I’ll try something like that with it soon! Thanks for sharing your creativity.

Nice project! #3

Much thanks for the vote... Also thanks for watching...

At first I was ready to choose the first because of its elegant minimalism. But then I appreciated rather more the abstract chemistry and the artistic representation of the molecular structures that the third photo suggests! 😏

[@MAKE_PHOTOGRAPHS_EVERYWHERE]

Yep strange how that adding a few more elements gives it a totally different feel. Good Eye ! Thanks again for watching ...

All look wonderful. However, I am drawn to #3 because of the random composition. I am more prone to like the way one would find composition in nature. But the order and organization of #1 & #2 gives a grounded feel. All are great. Thanks for your efforts of doing the photography and the presentation of it. I know it’s a lot of work!

Great effect from such a simple setup. Great content, thank you for sharing this 🤘🏼

You bet thanks for watching!

[@matthewalexander8752]

I like ‘em all- maybe #3 has the edge… Are you sending these to Photoshop for basic tweaks? - And do you have metal rings to stop them rolling away?

[@MAKE_PHOTOGRAPHS_EVERYWHERE]

Not really much photoshop. I think the last one I had to crop to a 16:9 format and clean up the photo of dust. Side note I used a glue gun on the round glass to hold it in place.

[@matthewalexander8752]

Maybe worth a try with small metal ‘key rings’…..A bit cleaner and less destructive than glue!

[@mohitthapa2265]

All three! ❤️

Hi Stafford, I’m discover your channel and you get a suscriptor more. I love your magic technique. Only a question please, what app you use for take the process? Thank you

[@MAKE_PHOTOGRAPHS_EVERYWHERE]

ahh I get that asked alot. So please see my video called light painting basics. It shows the application and the settings along with most asked questions. The app is called slow shutter just encase you do not watch the video. Thanks again for watching.

[@c.augustin]

#3 is my favorite, the composition is the most "intricate". Contrast could've been a bit more for my liking, to have more highlights (hard to explain, English isn't my first language). Interesting to have the light nearly exclusively from the back, wouldn't have thought about that!

[@MAKE_PHOTOGRAPHS_EVERYWHERE]

Yea, hey thanks for the vote. Seems like most prefer #3. Also thanks for watching and the critique.

[@mikecrosa8784]

Thanks for sharing. I like them all. Question where did you get the balls?

[@MAKE_PHOTOGRAPHS_EVERYWHERE]

I bought them on amazon. I tried finding them and could not. hmm keep searching but they were in a 3 pack and about $50.00 wish I could help more.

[@mikecrosa8784]

@@MAKE_PHOTOGRAPHS_EVERYWHERE Thanks. I tried Amazon with no joy and why I asked you. Have a great Thanksgiving!

[@MAKE_PHOTOGRAPHS_EVERYWHERE]

@@mikecrosa8784 same. if I come across any info I will write you back.

[@donlee6689]

Hard to pick only one honestly, they all look great! Quick question if you don't mind, what is that black shiny surface that the lens balls are sitting on? I need to get one, I really like the effect.

[@MAKE_PHOTOGRAPHS_EVERYWHERE]

Yea, I bought it like 10 years ago. I think it is called black acrylic... Not sure where I even bought it from. Maybe amazon... I also use mirror surfaces, stuff from hobby lobby cards that look like metal and actual metal sheets just an FYI ! Again thanks for watching....

[@donlee6689]

@@MAKE_PHOTOGRAPHS_EVERYWHERE Thank you! I found some on Amazon, can't wait to give it a try.

[@MAKE_PHOTOGRAPHS_EVERYWHERE]

@@donlee6689 Great, I would like some bigger than I have as well. Maybe the production has gotten better. Hope it works out.

[@mike1902]

I can’t choose between them as they are all great. 😃

I came across your channel today and it is so good.. Such magical photography. I have looked at the basics you recommended and would love to know where you got the pen light. Many thanks

Hi Stafford, I have watched with real interest your channel for sometime now. I have done a couple of my own images following the techniques you use and had reasonable results. I posted one of them on VERO and have had good feedback. I am going to point them towards your KZbin channel as I feel you are more qualified to teach them how you get your stunning images.

[@MAKE_PHOTOGRAPHS_EVERYWHERE]

Don, much appreciated. Also thanks for the kind words.
