Thank you for all of the time and effort you put into these very informative videos. I have learned something of value and something useful from every video of yours I have watched. Thanks for posting them.
Glad it was helpful!
These videos are so professionally produced that it is easy not to appreciate the skills and effort that has gone in to them. The use of different camera angles in the studio combine with feeds from the monitor etc is seamless. Not to mention that the content of these videos is outstanding and the explanations could not be clearer.
I’m sure many of us would benefit from an overview of the main equipment you use in the studio and what people should consider to get started. Apologies if you have already done some content on this already.
That is a good idea for a future video.
Thanks for watching.
Very well step-by-step explanation and without annoying background music. Many thanks for showing clearly how to produce the image.
It’s my pleasure, thanks for watching.
Everything is clear, simple and encourages creativity. Thank you very much for your work.
Thank you very much!
A true master.
Starting the day with a video of yours is a completely different thing 😀
Thanks for watching.
ABSOLUTELY wonderfully done.
Thank you! Cheers!
Very creative indeed
Thank you! Cheers!
I love your videos. Its refreshing to learn about the important techniques of creating good pictures rather than concentrating on equipment. I could spend hours in a studio like yours playing with lights etc. Great stuff!
Glad you like them!
Thank you very much. You are a real teacher. Have a nice time.
Thanks, you too!
This is fascinating to me, an exclusively outdoor bird photographer. Studio work is a very different world.
Yes but don’t forget, the physics of light is exactly the same regardless of whether you’re in a studio or outside.
Thanks for watching.
Absolutely classic approach to perfection ❤❤❤
Glad you think so!

Another excellent video. I noticed you are using an older camera. Could you maybe speak to the specifications needed for quality images?
Today's world seems to be racing for the latest and greatest in camera specifications. It seems your techniques are more centered around lighting and skill.
Yes I try to be independent of camera types. I will do a video on what you need for still life in the future.
Thanks for watching.
THANKS MY MASTER
Glad you liked the video.
Thanks for watching.
Amazing
Thank you! Cheers!
Love this photo. Thank you for showing us how to do it. Could I use speedlites to get a shot like this ?
Yes, absolutely you can you speed light. This requires very little energy as the lights are relatively close to the subject.
Thank you
You're welcome
Fantastic! What kind of clamp are you using to clamp the wood board to the c-stand?
The clamp is a Manfrotto 035 Super Clamp attached to the top of a C stand. Thanks for watching.
Thanks for the information. I’m a landscape photographer and looking to tryout still life in a studio this winter, I was wondering what you are using to hold the cutting board?
It's just held in a super clam on a lighting stand.
Thanks for watching.
Hi, another great tutorial, can I just where do you purchase your card for your background please, thanks.
I use LION Picture Framing Supplies Ltd

Thanks for watching.
Nice, You don't get diffraction at f.16?
There is no discernible diffraction with this lens even at f22. Diffraction has become a bit of a Internet myth. It will be there, but very rarely noticeable. thanks for watching.
Why not use a lens hood instead of a small flag?
Unless you use a full matte box type hood, it probably won’t work. A small flag is more adaptable.
Thanks for watching.
@@CameraClubLive I'd be interested to see a comparison between a small flag & a decent lens hood in this & similar side-lit scenes.
Sir, the composition is weak and the leaves are not adding beauty to the photo.
Thank you for your comment, all comments help grow my channel.
Thanks for watching.
That’s your opinion sir. I happen to like it
