This is one of the most inspirational photography videos I've seen! Thank you so much for making this and sharing it with us. I literally stopped your video and ordered a set of photographic crystals and prisims before finishing 😂 Your oil mixing setup had me thinking about shining prismatic light on the oil. Also, since I believe the light refracted by oil and bubbles is polarized, I'll bet a circular polarizer would be very cool.
Nice video and gives me some good ideas. Currently it is -4F outside …so looking for things inside! Paint is another good option. Lots of colors and textures. You can also do water colors in a dish and swirl them with some oil for a neat effect.
Instructions not clear, my house burned down I really liked the abstract water droplet photos, it’s mind bending to look at, but you do a great job at de-mystifying it! 👏
Apart from the fanciful suggestion of devoting a weekend to any of your terrific projects - my last unencumbered weekend was about 40 years ago - you have once again demonstrated wonderfully well that you don't need to leave the front gate to find beauty and inspiration. Great video Andrew!
Thanks so much! It sounds like you've earned yourself a free weekend to indulge in all the photography you want. If anyone asks, tell them I said it's fine.
A few things I’ve seen done are circuit boards, insides of a watch, a pile of coins. I haven’t done these yet but I want to do some of them over the next couple of weeks. Thanks for the reminder that there are some simple and fun ways to make some great photos.
A very well timed video. It is currently -38C in Edmonton, Alberta, and my motivation to go outside is diminishing quickly. Maybe time to give inside macro another attempt.
Thank you for posting such an informative and inspiring video. If ever there was a reason for shelling out on a soft-box, flash and flash-stand this is it! 😊
Loved this thank you, I had watched the full video on most of them but hadnt seen the one with the bubbles or your cat...very inspirational, thank you 😁
when I was a student (back in the 80's) I used to take close-up shots of mushrooms. yes, growing indoors, at home in our student digs! the rent was cheap though 🙂
very much the damp! I went to the Polytechnic of Wales (as it was called back in 1982) in South Wales. It was very wet and our house was a typical "Young Ones" type student abode. We never ate the mushrooms either!@@AndrewLanxonPhotography
Ah, you’re back from the pub now! 🙃😂 Thanks for an inspirational video, I’m always looking for fresh ideas for indoors macro shots when it’s not so great outdoors. I’ll give a few of these a try….
Thankyou for another great video packed with so much information and ideas. I just have a question if someone can help me. I have just spent 2 days trying bubble photos. My problem is that I am unable to reproduce the amazing colours and patterns as in the video, I just get 3 or 4 colours in the shape of a rainbow and thats it. I have changed mixture and soap but no go. I will keep persevering and thanks again Andrew for your videos.
Andrew, i am brand new to taking photos and it’s all overwhelming. I am really struggling with my setup. Is there anyway to contact you for advice, patreon or anything, im willing to pay so to get me down the right path
I love these ideas and have tried several of them in the past by following your tutorials and have had great results.. I would like to see water drop refraction photography which I struggle with. Also frozen flowers are easy to set up and make for some cool shots. Have you tried photographing tadpoles or frogspawn in a clear tank? BTW have you seen the latest CUPOTY results? some great ideas there to try.
After photographing the strawberry. Leave it out for a few days and it will go mouldy. The white fir can make some great macro shots

I love these ideas. I have on my list to learn how to use lighting this year and this video is my new learning tool!! 👏👏👏
Great ideas, and great video! Thanks

Some great ideas. Love the bubbles and oil and water. Still really like the one of your cat. Turned out so nice. And such a unique idea.
thanks for sharing such great informations btw i downloaded the video 😁
You are great, man! Thank you for all your content.

Were the mushrooms supposed to be there or were they the result of damp problems?

Love the photo of your furry friend on 8:35 . Inspired to take some of my own.
I would say, food is another interesting subject to shoot.
Loved the ideas. The volume on the interstitial music was pretty alarming though.

Different leaves will give you different results and when you’re in the florist, check the flowers
