This easy macro idea is AMAZING to try at home (Tutorial with lighting, focus stacking)

Descripción:

In this week's tutorial, I show an easy macro idea to try at home that beginners and experienced photographers can have great fun with. I explain how I use LED lighting and focus stacking to create beautifully-lit, sharp images using little equipment and a plant I picked up at good old Morrisons. I demonstrate how lighting angles can totally change the look of your image, and why a spritz of water changes everything. I then show how I merge my focus stack using Helicon Focus and how I edit my exposure and colours using Lightroom. 00:01 - Intro 00:25 - Macro subject idea 01:00 - Macro camera and lens 01:20 - Zhiyun Molus X100 LED light 02:15 - Lighting angles for macro 06:10 - Backlighting in macro 06:38 - spraying water droplets for macro photography 08:00 - Focus stacking 12:22 - Export as DNG in Lightroom 13:05 - Focus merge in Helicon 14:34 - Better shadows in Lightroom 16:00 - Brush tool for clarity 16:30 - HSL tool in Lightroom 19:50 - Best presets in Lightroom
