Thank for the tip. We get snow once every forty years. After looking at your video that why I see a lots of Canadians in my area in this time of the year
Superbo!! Nice, thank you to show us, how beautiful the nature’s snow is! Regards. Although I live in The Middle East, never had snow, but Great to see God’s Design of Snow! Thank you.
Loving your work Lisa. Again another great video and tips.. Cant wait to travel Canada Again as there is much more i have yet to see.. Again, thank you and keep on posting..
Thx for inspiration, finally we had heavy snow last night, it`s about -5 so tomorrow, when sun will raise I`ll try to catch few snowflakes from my fence.
Great video Lisa! I need to try this but I think I need to upgrade from my 50mm macro to maybe a 100mm macro or try some extension tube to get in closer. Thanks for the tips...
Inscribed!!! Thanks for this great (and short) tutorial Lisa! Question: how is your lens NOT fogging up in that freezing cold. In 2015 I was home in Wyoming in December and when I took my 5dMkiii out to shoot the snow my lens ended up getting all foggy! God bless and looking forward to more videos!
Lisa I was thinking if you used a black fiber board, that would be flatter and not bring in artifacts you don't want in the picture. Just a thought for next winter.
We have our usual almost-snow here in the UK right now... a few hours snowfall, leaving a pathetic 1 inch layer on the ground, but hopefully we'll get some more soon and I can give it a try.
Those are so awesome! I'm a newbie with more professional cameras I have a cannon camera the t5i I think.. could you maybe link to the lense you were talking about because I'm not even sure I would know what to look up to find it! I'm really into super close up pics! I would love to photograph bugs and plants this way! Is there an in between size lense for stuff like that or would this one work too?? Thanks for any help!
She indicated she's using the Canon 100mm macro f2.8 set to around f5.6. Shutter would obviously vary due to lighting conditions outside. She's on a tripod so we can assume she's going slower than 1/100 (as per inverse focal rule of thumb) to let more light in, but of course this depends on her iso, which would probably be bottomed out at around 100 (outside). FWIW I would guess she's shooting at around 1/60 to 1/125. But some people like shooting higher iso on cloudy days, say 400, so that would allow faster shutter.. But her point is not basic photography, but what temperature and conditions are optimal for catching snow flakes.
Hi Lisa, are there any precautions that need to be taken with the snow and your camera? I live in a warm climate so I may be dense I just associate snow = water = bad so just curious in case I ever find myself in snow and want to shoot. Thanks a bunch!
Not really, well other than falling or dropping your camera (as well as making sure the tripod is stable; I've shot in Canada for years, never had a problem
Great video !! I recommend you to try with the E mp65mm macro lens. Your gonna have fun with this lens. But I warning you. Besides tripod and a rail. you'll need a remote shutter as well. You have a new subscriber ✌️
I have the same camera and just got the same lens (been playing around with it) how did you manage to get that zoomed in? I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong..
Sadly, we didn't get any snow so I've had to put the idea on hold for a while. I'm off to Scotland in a few weeks and there's a bit more chance of getting some snow while I'm there...
Loren Lloyd condensation happens when temperatures change rapidly with a lot of moisture in the air. Standing outside is fine. But as soon as you bring your camera indoors, it will get condensation
Put your camera in a sealed plastic bag, before you go out and before you go back inside, and let it adapt to the new lower or higher temperature before taking it out of the bag.
Very nice pictures and I like the different surfaces you use. Do you have an extension tube attached to that lens in this video? You may like to take a look at Don Komarechka's photos too as he specializes in snowflakes. 500px.com/donkom There is a fascinating interview with him and photojoseph (2/2/2018) explaining how he gets the shots and the long post processing sometimes needed to get the right picture.
At 0:45 I had to mute my phone bc I thought I was about to unconciously, watch a porn video... In public... Like, again unconciously. Excellent photographs!!
Open your eyes, Mikol. People DO photograph snowflakes using macro lenses. Just check out Don Komaretchka's work! He's THE snowflake expert, and he uses the 65mm MP-E.
Excellent pics. Great tutorial. The scarf idea was great.
Thank for the tip. We get snow once every forty years. After looking at your video that why I see a lots of Canadians in my area in this time of the year
Snowflakes really do look like that! Truely amazing
beautiful photographs by a beautiful photographer...

Lol
Thanks for posting your experiments, never would have thought of this one.
Wow, thank a lot great technic !!! Your snow flakes are BEAUTIFUL!!
Lisa. Thank you for this tip. I got a beautiful snowflake pic today.

Looks great! one of the down sides of being on french riviera.... gonna have to make a trip for a snowflake!
Excellent, will definitely try this if we have snow this year
Brava!! Ciao....from MILAN, Italy!! And now it's just snowing!!
Gorgeous! Nice shots Lisa...
Thank you so much. I've been trying to capture snow flakes but with no success until now. Yay!
Thx for inspiration, finally we had heavy snow last night, it`s about -5 so tomorrow, when sun will raise I`ll try to catch few snowflakes from my fence.
Really enjoy your videos. You should post again!
Just started snowing again in Canada. At least where I am😄 Time to get into snow pictures again!
Thanks for posting this, I'm gonna try that(when it snows of course)!
Great video Lisa! I need to try this but I think I need to upgrade from my 50mm macro to maybe a 100mm macro or try some extension tube to get in closer. Thanks for the tips...
Old post, but yeah. 100mm macro will not get you closer. :p
What about using live view?
Great charisma! Looks like fun. Thanks for sharing your tips!
Enjoyed your video thank you hello from BC🇨🇦
So great! I love the macro photos (= Nice day!
Thanks for sharing your technique!
Thanks for saying Ciao in my language. Your exlanation is very clear. Buona giornata!
That last photo was excellent.
Ty for the video,looking forward to my own adventures in snowflakes.

I have a canon Rebel T6 and the macro lens I had wasn’t working, I had to stand at least 5 ft away and it wasn’t working, what am I doing wrong
Juicy Snowflake, love it
We have our usual almost-snow here in the UK right now... a few hours snowfall, leaving a pathetic 1 inch layer on the ground, but hopefully we'll get some more soon and I can give it a try.
Hoping for some snow for you :)
Absolutely stunning, Ms. Bettany! Thank you very much for the tips. 😊
A glove on only one hand in the cold; oh, my! 😳
ha yes! it got quite cold :)
Those are so awesome! I'm a newbie with more professional cameras I have a cannon camera the t5i I think..
could you maybe link to the lense you were talking about because I'm not even sure I would know what to look up to find it! I'm really into super close up pics!

Hi! Here is a link to the lens: www.canon.ca/inetCA/en/products/method/gp/pid/2074
This lens is great for bugs and plants :)
Longitudinal CA (the green and pink colors in front of and behind the plane of focus) is pretty rough with this lens it seems.
Was this macro? What was the shutter? Not a lot of information here

Looks like fun!!!
Hey it's Lisa!!! I was just photographing snowflakes today...not SO easy....researching a bit. Still talk to Leo? Aloha
I’d try this except here in Australia the temp is 37c. Definitely no snow
Pretty awesome!
Thank you appreciate/ love your Video

Just crop the photo. It isn't a zoom lens.
Cable release, where are you??
good point, although i have excellent reflexes ;)
Now I want snow. Don't worry about the cable release. Just set your shooting mode to 2 second timer and you'll not have to worry about unsharp photos.
I like this. Could you make a new one and flip the camera to video mode to show us how it looks through the lens?
We may be lucky enough to get some snow on Thursday/Friday, so I'll have to give this a try! :)
good luck!
Sadly, we didn't get any snow so I've had to put the idea on hold for a while. I'm off to Scotland in a few weeks and there's a bit more chance of getting some snow while I'm there...
How do your lenses not get condensation inside doing this?

great video. very useful information. greetings from munich
I have found the easiest way to photograph snowflakes is simply to attend any protest march or rally ! 😂
Is Kingston still known for its apple orchards?
Guess shutter release or timer on tripod works for me. Even a couple stop filter.have fun .enjoy
Hello! I am from Argentina, I hope to do that type of photography when winter comes here in Patagonia. I have a 105mm macro sigma lens. Hugs Lisa
Wow. Is it real snow flakes?😳🖤
Awesome! Hello from a Bluenoser
I never know a 100mm L 1:1 macro can take a shot like this. I thought you need at least 2:1 macro
Hi lisa. Just a little tips: try focus stacking....
very nice photos
You should put a small towel over your camera and lens to keep it dry as you image. :-)
I think she bought weather-proof gear for a reason.
Can you please make some more videos love your goofy attitude 😀
Very cool thanks !
great tips thank u.
How to photograph snowflakes.........? Visit any College campus in the US and snap away
cameraman655 👌😂
Lovely!
Thanks
thanks a lot... from greece
Your camera was getting wet from the snow. Doesn't this harm your camera?
5Ds are weather-proof as are the L series 100mm macros.
Nice
Stars and moon. Show me what it can do
We don't have snow ❄💔
Nice thank you , ( Good Show )
Thanks Lisa for sharing your Insights . helpful . 😇 please , you need too wear warm Gloves on your hands .

I love you !
This was like watching those old Kung Fu movies from the 80's.
Jas Mann loool
-10? in Jan... thats it..... I hate you. I think in Jan it was -37 around there in MB :P
I find the best way is to go to a Trump rally
I find more of them at antifa rallies
Seriously? Can we just share a common ground with photography with politics?!?!
At 0:45 I had to mute my phone bc I thought I was about to unconciously, watch a porn video...
In public...
Like, again unconciously.
Excellent photographs!!
I love you
Sis u r fab
Lol! Can’t photograph snowflakes with a macro! That would require you being close, but snowflakes need a safety zone so as to not have a meltdown!
Open your eyes, Mikol. People DO photograph snowflakes using macro lenses. Just check out Don Komaretchka's work! He's THE snowflake expert, and he uses the 65mm MP-E.
