Great trick to backlight the flowers without having a white background. Great technical trick ! Thank you 🌹

You cant get a better presentation than this - - thank you
Glad you liked it
Another fantastic episode. This time just after the intro, I knew what are the steps, we need to do, to achieve the particular type of image. And all credits goes to you because you taught every thing in the past. This episode refreshes my memory. A very big thanks and Have a nice time.
Glad it was helpful!
Many thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Glad it was helpful!
I watched this video several months ago and finally tried it yesterday. I don't have a softbox so I stuck some black card to a window with Blu Tak and put some flowers on the window sill in front of it. I also made an aperture mask and eventually suspended it in the right position. I took photos with and without the aperture mask and, in my case, I don't think it did a huge amount as the window light was soft and I didn't notice any glare but the wrap-around back-lighting worked well without it. I was pleased with the results and shall try again with other flowers. Many thanks for all your wonderful videos. I have learned a lot from you and it is very interesting to see the equipment and methods used by a professional.
My pleasure, I'm not a professional in the economic sense just the philosophical sense!!!
Wow.. thank you for your lecture. I have learned so much from your videos. I appreciate all of your teaching ☺️
You are so welcome

Glad you like it!
Outstanding,as usual.
Thank you! Cheers!
Subscribed!!! Wow! A master lesson! Thank you!
(I love your calm progression, no theatrics).
Your welcome
Thank you ,you are great teacher
So nice of you
Very useful video , clearly explained and informative without the unnecessary hype. Shooting glass objects is so good for learning how to shape light while managing reflections 😀. I would love to see episode 2 and three in this, maybe adding some light or detail in the background and post processing for a texture and a fine art feel to the image 😀. I shall subscribe
Thank you.
thanks a lot for your great great work. everything i know about lightning techniques is from your channel. your videos started my interest in still-life photography. im already waiting for your next image.
one idea/remark could you also show us some time what you can achieve with just one or two consumer speedlights.
Glad to help!
Great demo
thanks
Thanks for watching!
Excellent and very well explained
Can you give size for the cut out in the aperture mask
The cut out in the aperture mask is 18 x 12 cm. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching.
Thank You so much for your Time !!!
Thanks for watching.
Another great watch. Fab photo. Do you think I could achieve the same with a speedlite in a soft box?
Yes, you should be able to replicate that photograph with a speed light although you would need quite a lot of energy as the losses are great. Alternatively you could increase the sensitivity of your camera turn the ISO up.
Love it! Beautiful! Thanks!
Glad you like it!
Wonderful video, I'm a big fan! I wonder - is defraction an issue when you stop down to f22, or is that only an issue with higher magnification macro work?
Not really an issue at all perhaps a macro lens on a full frame camera might have an issue with Defraction at F-22. Thanks for watching.
Thank you for this excellent tutorial!
You have a small silver 'camera' sitting on a tripod next to your workstation. I'm curious, is it for video, or taking readings on something else? Also, are you using your bellows rig with a digital back? Cheers!
The camera is a 8mm cine camera Braun Nizo S 800 super 8 film. Film has always been a passion of mine. The belows canera is a Sinar 5x4, I use an adaptor to mount my Canon D1 X Mk III on it.
@@CameraClubLive Thank you, they look like great pieces of kit to work with.
You have a natural talent for teaching. If it's possible, I'm sure many people would love to see a video on your digital view camera still life studio techniques?
Cheers, and many thanks again!
Awesome job.. could you give me advise, what spesification of monitor need it to have accurate color to editing.
This was a helpful video; thank you! I'd love to hear more about aperture masks and how one is made. Are they only good at one distance and focal length?
Great suggestion!
This is epic. I love that aperture mask.. it's the solution to the glare I often get when I light the subject from behind facing the camera. Can a polarizing filter also help in overcoming glare?
Only in some limited cases, I may do a video on that subject soon.
@@CameraClubLive thanks alot. Would look forward to watching it
A very helpful presentation. The aperture mask worked well; whilst understanding the ratio matches the camera sensor, how do you decide how large a “hole” to make or do you have a series of such masks and select the one that fits the subject matter best? Thanks.
The latter is a good idea, although I have only ever used one size about 150mmx120mm
@@CameraClubLive Thank you for the speedy response.
Another excellent video. Do you recall how much energy the d2 put out for the final image you took?
I think it was 300 Joules.
any tips on creating an aperture mask based on camera sensor size?
most sensors have a ratio of 4x3, therefore if you make the aperture any multiple of that it will fit. so for example 4inchx5inch or 40mmx50mm or 80mmx100mm and so on.
@@CameraClubLive Thanks and great videos!
can you make that with constant light? led?
Yes that should work.
Hello teacher, how to see the effective distance of the light
Thank you
