Dear Andrew, really stunning woodland! I love it and, like you, when I'm in nature I appreciate the silence and peace of those places. Thanks for sharing and for the helpful tips. Greetings from Italy 🤗
7:34 or so... "A slug? Does it talk? Not really... Well it's scarcely a replacement, is it?" Monte Python fan here... Can't hear about slugs without thinking of the Dead Parrot Sketch. Getting back into macro, re-energized by new R5. Thanks for the videos! New sub, learning a lot!
Another great video Andrew! I love watching your field work and how you work a scene to get to a good composition and lighting. It is so interesting to see how you incorporate the LED panel in some of your shots. What color temperature (for the panel) is your favorite for macros?
Very good, one of your best I think! It took me back about fifteen years and I was in around Rudyard lake Leicester area and got some lovely shots of bluebells and flying bugs coming for a look. So thanks for that, I might even send you a photo, I can still see it and I’m 72 so you’ve got plenty of years, live in the New Forest but that place you glampt? Brilliant foresight of owners to show what we’re missing in natural ways, homes, or habitats, I grew up in the fifties and just went off across the fields with my Dog Brandy, hay bails and Hawthorn, Oak, Beech, Elm, willows by the Streams, sparrows and starlings, crows, jays, magpies in packs.

Hi, Andrew. This is again an excellent video. I just love the way how you approach macro photography. Most of my work is B&W still life and macro. Your lighting tips are awesome. I really like this channel and will keep following you, my friend. Greetings from the Netherlands, Antoine.
I have to agree with the SA on this lens. I just can’t find a use for it that doesn’t seem like the lens is incapable of focusing correctly. As always, great work!
Thank you for the video - very good as usual. The spherical aberration control has a lock that might be useful. It prevents it from being accidentally changed. I use it and it works well. One request... Can you please include the photo details with the photos shown? Things like f-stop, ISO, etc. This is helpful for me to understand how the photo was shot. Thank you again and looking forward to the next video.
I don't know how you see all those tiny insects and spiders. I'm just starting out with macro and it's not as easy as it looks but such a beautiful genre. Great images.
Did anyone like me just using the sounds of the forest as my soundtrack?
Yes! So peaceful
I did. Makes me feel the forest as if I were there.
Yes very relaxing - lovely soft foggy trees behind you 😮
Lovely sounds of nature.
I did. So peaceful.
great thank you so much
Super interesting, enjoyable and helpful, Andrew
Wow that was a fast 12 minutes. Very enjoyable ❤
Really nice video and I always come back to you when I am struggling with my photography to get back on track....thank you and keep them coming.
Great idea to introduce some artificial light, very effective
Very nice! Great tips on how to use the light. I wish my knees were good enough get down with the subjects like you do!
Looks like a wonderful place to go relax! Thanks for taking us along!!
Loved this vibe Andrew, simple creatures are so enchanting. Would you be prepared to share the location, I’d love to stay in that farmhouse

Nice video sir
Loved the video. And Yes, I did like the sounds of the forest.
Thank you! It seemed like too good a soundtrack to cover up with music!

Lucky you to have such a beautiful place to yourself! By the way the handheld LED light is unavailable at this time.
I have to agree with the SA on this lens. I just can’t find a use for it that doesn’t seem like the lens is incapable of focusing correctly. As always, great work!
Awesome video Andrew, your videos always inspire me to go out and try more macro.😊👏
Thank you so much!
As usual you never disappoint! Such beautiful images! Even prompted me to break out my macro lens this evening! Keep it up my friend!!!
Thank you for the video - very good as usual.
