Nikon Z6 - Macro flowers with home made snoot (pringles can)

Another lockdown video - excuse the haircut it's been 15 weeks!!!

So here is a video where we can turn some everyday household items into a simple and effective light modifier. Plus I show you how to edit the final image in Lightroom.

All you will need is the following;
Camera with 50mm lens,
Flashgun
Pringles can (tube for the uk viewers)
Flowers
Tripod (if you are focus stacking/shifting)

01:17 converting a pringles tube
03:48 link to focus shift shooting
05:15 edit in lightroom
Macro photography opens up a whole new world of photos. These photos are enhanced by using artificial light created with a studio strobe or flashgun. By creating a snoot, we are effectively funnelling the light into a concentrated beam, which allows us to get maximum detail from the subject, and reduce the appearance of distractions in our image.

For the absolute best results, consider using focus stacking, here is a link to my focus stacking video:

Once you have taken your images, I show you how to do an edit in lightroom and really bring out the detail in your image.
