I used to hate dandelion season and right now in Canada, we don't have any. I can't believe that I am looking forward to it this year! Just discovered your videos and love your presentations and simple explanations. Look forward to more! Great job Lee. As an ex Brit, love the accent! Thanks again Bill Goodwin

Lee, I know how much you have talked about depression and it's real for so many people, maybe more with our lockdown. Your personality and your gift of sharing helps so many people get excited about photography. Thank you so much for doing what you do to help others. Stay safe my friend :)

Absolutely fantastic, thank you so much for the information. I will have to give it a try.

Thank you Lee. Great, simple to understand approach - worked very well, and got some great shots. Cheers!

Hi Lee, just discovered you on You Tube. Thanks so much for your generosity in sharing your expertise. I'm definitely going to attempt this. Thanks again.

Hi Lee, I am not sure why I haven't seen his video before. I have have had some fantastic results from following you and your ideas. I will be trying this out over the next couple of days. Thanks Lee, keep up the great work!

Absolutely brilliant! Your shots are amazing, and how you explain and show the setup and settings is just perfect! Cracking job mate!

Excellent stuff , once again it’s simple but very effective , I must give it a try , Cheers

Interesting! Absolutely Interesting!

Sorry for the fact its took a lockdown to discover you on KZfaq,,,,now I have to try this,,cheers from Northumberland in lockdown

Your photos are so cool Lee. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and ideas! I’m going to give this a go over the weekend. Cheers!

I’m so excited to try this 👏🤩

Thanks Lee, your video is very inspiring. Made my first attempt today, it looks promising.

This is absolutely brilliant, thanks a million for your easy to follow explanation and tips, you have made my day (and the rest of the year), cheers fella and keep up the great work..!

hallo bos....i like you video...from malaysia ok tq

Nice homely presentation. Excellent shots and advice. Many thanks for sharing your knowledge with this excellent video.

You are a breath of fresh air in the photography world. I always offer to help and share my own knowledge, but many don't, so thank you.

I love your attitude to sharing. You have exactly the same philosophy as me. Been to a few camera clubs - no sharing, no advice, very secretive. That's not my idea at all.

Lee, I don't know if you have heard this quote by American Landscape photographer Ansel Adams... "The single most important component of a camera is the twelve inches behind it"..... You have nailed it - Awesome Photographs. I found your channel by accident last week and I've been watching your videos since. My advice to anyone else watching "Watch Lee's video's right to the end" he comes up with these great gems - The Pringles can on the Flash... the shower sponge thing as a background.... Keep up the great work, Lee .... Now If you'll excuse me I'm off to buy a can of Pringles and fire up my camera... Thanks again.

I'm finally going to try this today, I saw your shots on the fb group and now I've got the time! Great vid, I'll post results in the group. Adam. 🙂

Thanks Lee, the milky water idea solves a couple of my issues. Take care!

Stumbled across this on KZfaq, really enjoyed it, thank you very much for sharing it could well be time to dust off my macro lens and get my camera out again.

Hi Lee well done on your video and well done on keeping it simple so that anyone can do this I have to say the results are amazing I've never really thought about macro photography I will now very much inspired. Well done lee

Amazing Lee I just love your tutorials brilliant 👍👍

Amazing captures, Lee! Thanks for sharing!

Another great video Lee, stunning results. I have learnt so much from your channel. Keep up the great work mate. 👍🏻

I am so glad I stumbled across your videos, Lee. I own a Canon 5D classic and a few lenses. I have just bought a Sigma 50mm f2.8 1:1 macro lens. I got it cheap because of the autofocus not working. As I only need manual focus, it doesn't matter. Watching your simplistic but artistic approach, I am going to try to be more creative. I have a few dandelion clocks in the garden and will attempt a few pics. Pleased to have subscribed and really looking forward to seeing more of your work.

Thanks for the creative idea, looking to pick up a macro lense next

Amazing!!! A million thanks for sharing your experience. Greetings from Switzerland Claudia

Love your work Lee, watched this video a couple times now but can't seem to manage to get the reflections.

Love this thank for sharing Lee

Interesting video, thanks!👍🤓

Amazing capture 😍 Thanks for sharing Lee !

Thank your for sharing your experience and talent. I really like your teaching style. Mike

Magic, thanks Lee. Now I just need to persuade my hubby to stop weeding all the dandelions out!

Love your videos it is really getting me trying more stuff now a very big thank you :-)

Another cracking watch and great shots. You couldnt sell me a few clocks seeds could you please? Its a long wait till spring lol Gary

You have a great character and style for this .... you get the sub you deserve from me . Also images were crispy 🤟

Hey Lee this came up in my KZfaq feed, wow mate, what I great watch and a great explaination how to capture this shot, great macro photography

Sharing is exactly right, don't know why some togs keep it secret as you can find out quite easily anyway, Great work.

lee fab pics, great ideas again buddy.

Great Video again Lee, keep up the good work mate.

Awesome!

Thanks very much!!! lovely explained

Cracking images m8 I am going to give it a go tomorrow will post on your fb wall m8

Brilliant mate, as always

Subscribed. Great job and great instructional video!

Absolutely loved this video and idea ,you explain everything in easy terms that everyone can understand.Found you on youtube from macro tips photography. Just a question my camera has no built in flash could i use a LED torch or light or try it outside. Thanks for the great idea.

keep em coming mate. well happy

Totally new to photography. I have an18-55mm, a 50mm fixed and a 55-200 MM lens. I also have 2 extension tubes. Which should I use to try and recreate what you have done?

Wauw😍thank you for sharing.

Очень красиво получилось!!!

Thank you for the tips.

Hi Lee. A little trick I thought of for supporting the dandelion stalks. As you know, they are hollow. Would a disposable wooden skewer fit up inside the stalk of the plant and give you more support?

Awesome Video again lee well presented and explained :-)

Brilliant mate :)

Thank you, great inspiration and very motivating . When focusing do you use single spot.?

Thanks Lee !!!

Bonsoir I just want to know if there is only water in the bootle ?whitout glycérine?. Thanks

Fantastic. I have been inspired by your videos and had a ball yesterday trying it out. I found the hardest part was making the background visible in the shot. It appeared to be there in live view (I could see the card moving in and out of shot) but in some, it then didn't appear in the photograph. Could it be that it is actually the reflection of the b/g in the liquid we see in your shots? I think it was in mine, despite having the camera so low that any lower and I was catching the front edge of the plate. However, I have one shot in particular that I really like and would really love to show you, but don't know how.

Just discovered your channel, really appreciate these in-depth videos! About the background paper: is this some sort of plastic or glossy glittery kind of paper? Really like the result you are getting with these! Thanks and greetings from The Netherlands.

Hello Lee, congratulations on the video, greeting from the old town of Lübeck, Germany

Hi Lee! Love all your videos...thank you! I definitely want to try this. Do you always use an extension tube with your macro lens or can you achieve the same results without the extension tube??

Another great video Lee, still no dandelions up in northeast yet :(

I think their great pictures Lee, Might even have a go myself, I do long timed exposures of landscapes' but yes I will have ago... By the way where did you buy the drip tray...Also Subbed to you....

Again, like so many other comments well done and much appreciated. one question Lee can you get the dandelion clocks this time of year? as I've not seen any.

I can't get color cast on milk surface so that no reflection of droplets are clearly visible do you think using a non-shiny background paper can cause this

Great tips mate! Love refraction abstracts as well! You got some beautiful shots😉

awesome mate. backgrounds from tesco eh? guess where im going tomorrow? lol.

Hi Lee. Loved this idea and video. Ps what backgrounds specifically are from tesco so I can try this. Best regards from James in scottland.

Thank you for sharing your creative ideas! How can i show you what i made?

Hello Lee I don't have a flash. Can I get a similar result with still lighting

hello can you tell me or I can find the colored background you put in the background super your video bravo and thank you

HI Lee, These are magnificent! I have an Canon 80D but no flash, can I utilize something else?

Lee what part of the dandelion clock do you use, I can't see the heart of the head, ie the bit where all the seeds are attached in your shots

Thank you

brilliant

Hey Lee, could you please tell me something about these amazing background papers you used!?

Hi there Lee,i might of asked you this before but is it ok to use Jpeg instead of raw on the dandelion thanks Lee.

I’m a photography student in the US and have chosen to do this for my final project. I can’t get the clock to fill the whole frame. In order to get any focus I seem to need to frame the clock too far away and then crop from that image. What am I doing wrong!

Lee, I’ve been trying to find the lazy Susan that you bought from Amazon. I can only find really small ones. Do you have a link please.

Do you mix water into the milk?

You sound like a fellow Brummie!

Hi Lee! :) Just one question: where can I get similar backgrounds?

Is this done in a dark or lit room?

a other top video mate

How do you get the whole image in focus

How do I send my photos

ma il fiore lo mantieni con la plastichina nel piatto?

I am sure every "Beginner" has this camera ?
