    Great video! I bought the Meike extension tubes for $30 last year and they make for a fun macro hobby on the cheap. To protect the lens another photog recommends having silica packs inside your bag to help prevent moisture. Yours is more extreme but I thought I would throw that out there.

    • @JulieWhelanPhotographer
      @JulieWhelanPhotographer 3 роки тому

      Yes, that's a great suggestion. Silica packs come in everything...just got to remember to not throw them out! That would suck if they broke in your camera bag though. I always have a plastic grocery bag with my camera gear anyway because they have different uses in the field like rain protection while shooting or having something to rest your bag or gear on if it's muddy, etc.

    I adored this video. You may have your snowshoes on backward, but you have a really great sense of telling the story of a photographer struggling to get a shot. The editing was funny and captivating, and the time flew by. I also like how you paced out the music and the reveal, so that by the time you started showing the final images in the 14th minute it felt like an emotional payoff. It might sound absurd to say this about an 18-minute video about a single snowflake, but this is my favourite video I've watched on UA-cam in a long time. Bravo! 👏💜

    I tried getting some snowflake photos myself when it snowed in Texas not too long ago. But couldn't find a large enough snowflake so I didn't end up getting any 🥲 Even at 1:1 Macro it's not enough. I might have to extension tube my macro lens, but that's quite tricky especially since I have a 50mm instead of a say 100 or 90mm.
