Besides learning a heck of a lot, I can listen to his voice all day. I'm still waiting for him to say "And Bob's your uncle, there you have it indeed."

This is ingenious 😮 … at first I thought you had put these pears on some kind of strings. But this solution with the glass layer is fantastic. ❤

A great demo, and UA-cam's software seems to have been fixed, so I can comment and "Like" your videos again, yea!! I was doing this 24 years ago with Photoshop 7.1 It's much much easier today, but the technique is nearly the same.
Thanks, Barby

I traded all my Canon gear, for a previously enjoyed phase one XF 100 megapixel system. Almost a straight swap so far so good. thanks for watching.

[@victorcarmelo8606]

Whilst this is a great demo/tutorial, I find the top of the tea towel a bit overexposed and left shadow cut short at the top by the glass, was that meant to be that way? Thanks for sharing.

[@CameraClubLive]

Each to your own, as far as the exposure is concerned, this is a demonstration of the technique. Once you have the technique you can apply it to your own subject. Thanks for watching.
