Remarkable tutorial. Amazing how the use of negative space lends so mush aesthetic charm to these still life images. Loved it.

Thanks you for such a lucid explanation of your process.

Charles, thank you so much for this video. The college classes I've taken don't teach this. I've been searching years for an instructor on this exact form of photography. I now have a name for a genre I've been striving for but didn't know what to call it or how to accomplish it.

[@charlesbatchelder1540]

I found the inclusion of the 17th century paintings added a lot to the discussion. Thanks.

I want to see behind the scenes pictures that have shadows

[@gerardodalchielelueiro6818]

Your video is very interesting I make two question First why the light come ever from the left side ?? Second we canmake still photgraphy ond black and white?? best regards from Argentina

[@charlesbatchelder1540]

Gerardo Dalchiele Lueiro, that is an interesting observation you made that I can’t really explain. I DO seem to usually end up having the light come from the left, but I found that I do have a few images with the light coming from the right. Comparing them, I don’t think it really matters. As far as black and white goes, why not, if you like working in black and white. I’ve done a couple of still lifes myself in black and white that have been well received in competition, one of bathroom toiletries and one in the vanitas style. However, I do think color helps evoke the 17th century look, if that’s what you want. Thanks for watching the video.

[@gerardodalchielelueiro6818]

May be you can do the experience to turn your images right to left and see what occur because in this case the light wil come from right.

[@JRBRPhotography]

I found this to be a very interesting and informative tutorial, however as being so new to this type of photography, I’m confused a bit about the focus stacking. I understand getting all object in focus, but can one get the same effect with setting the camera focus points to all active? I’ll definitely be returning to this video from time to time.
