MACRO Photography | Water Drops on Flowers | Tips for Mobile Phone Photography

Join me as I share tips on photographing flowers and water drops in the spring with my phone and a little macro lens. I’m using my Olloclip lens in this one, but there are many macro lenses for smartphones that will accomplish the same thing, it’s like putting a little magnifying glass on the end of your phone camera.

Gorgeous! The water droplets look like crystal gems adorning the flowers. Lovely vlog. Thank you 🙏🏼!

@LieslHuddleston 3 года назад

Thank you, Irene! I feel the same way when I see them, especially water drops on webs remind me of jewels. One of the photos here (the one with bokeh balls in the background) had an unexpected lens flare/sparkle in it that made me smile, so fun!

@FakeNews_Ignored 3 года назад

Because of your introduction of clip on macro lens, I purchased one for my cell phone, I was able to practice your recommendations. I've posted several macro shots using your methods, and they were liked by many. Thank you so much. 👍👍🙏🙏

That's great! I'd love to see if you would like to share, I don't think you can post a link, but you can let me know the platform and username, if you wish.

Hi Liesl, beautiful water drops on purple flowers, it gives a dreamy feeling ~ Thanks for an awesome video! It’s raining out now, got to go to give it a try! 😃

@LieslHuddleston 3 года назад

Thanks, Joyce! I hope you had some fun out after the rain :D

@LivingForHisGlory 3 года назад

Thank you for another beautiful video, Liesl! I always enjoy watching your videos! I love the soothing music that you add to them too! Pansies are one of my favorite flowers and I love shooting macro too! How beautiful that you ended your video with a Bible verse! God bless you and your family! ♥

@LieslHuddleston 3 года назад

Thank you! I rarely photograph pansies because they are so common in gardens here, but they are so cheerful looking and it was nice to look at them closely for a while :)

@CruisingWithChooChoo 3 года назад

Such a lovely video tutorial. Thanks so much!! I’m surprised how you managed to get such gorgeous shots with just a phone and moment macro lens. I have them and I’ll try using them this way too!!

@cremersalex 3 года назад

Love the water drops and especially the colours. I'm surprised the phone photos look so good on my 65" OLED TV. Makes you wonder why we even bother to pursue professional gear.

@LieslHuddleston 3 года назад

That's good to know, Alex! I'm planning on making a video sometime in the future about printing phone photos, so we can see the quality of large professional prints. I think each sets of gear have their place, the phone can fill in for certain kinds of photos that you just can't quite duplicate with a big camera. I think it mostly has to do with placement of the lens, I can get to parts of a flower while it is in its natural habitat far easier with my phone than I can with a big camera.

@Lightfighter1 3 года назад

I very much enjoy your videos! Beautiful images and with peaceful, informative narration. I'm particularly interested in the possibilities with iPhone photography. I sold off all my DSLR equipment 3 years ago and have been shooting entirely with a series of iPhones from the XS to the 12 Pro. Your videos have inspired me to consider adding a macro lens later this year.

@johniescorpio 3 года назад

Dear Liesl, you are a big inspiration. I love your work and the simplicity of it. Do you print your photographs? We would like to see some prints if you already have them. Take care.

@LieslHuddleston 3 года назад

Thank you very much! I don't have any prints right now, but actually I've been thinking about making a video on printing photos that were taken on my phone. I had one printed very large on canvas a couple of years ago as a gift and it turned out beautifully. I just need to make enquiries some time to find out if the print shop I used is still in business after the pandemic.

Hello Liesl Happy valentines day how are you doing today?🌻🌻🌻

@marvinspates924 3 года назад

Very beautiful video and photos! What phone and camera do use? New subscriber!

@LieslHuddleston 3 года назад

Hi Marvin :) I use an iPhone XS Max, but I will say it is not the best phone camera I've ever used. I will just continue to use it though till I need to upgrade my phone (which might be years from now, I'm not sure) with it I add a little macro lens, either a Moment macro or Olloclip macro, but Olloclip no longer makes theirs, they shut down due to the pandemic. You can see more information in the description under the video :) Thanks for subscribing, I hope you'll enjoy many more videos.

@annmarieperkins7059 3 года назад

@MrNicolasmaillard 3 года назад

Hi Liesl, beautiful shots as always, do you use tripod for your photographs or do you always practice handheld ? for me, shallow depth of field when performing macro is always a challenge to stay steady ;-)

@LieslHuddleston 3 года назад

Thanks! Always handheld, I've probably used my tripod about 5 times since I got it years ago and it's usually for video or for filming my camera settings 😄 Yes, it is difficult especially with the shallow depth of field, I miss a lot of shots if I have been out of practice, but if I go out often it gets better. It feels like it is always a combination of these things ~> good lighting, good subject, being in a good mood, practice, patience, and luck! :D

Beautiful video topped off with a GREAT WORD of THE GOOD NEWS of THE LORD!

@LieslHuddleston 3 года назад

Thanks, Amy. Yes, I had just recently experienced a difficult time with health and feeling low, then on this morning out photographing these water drops really lifted my spirits and I felt a great deal of gratitude for nature and all my blessings, felt good to turn a page, smile and remember where our blessings come from :)

@joyceyang6976 3 года назад

@@LieslHuddleston Great to hear you are feeling better! Yes, “Nature” and “Gratitude” will do the magic! Cheers~ 💕

@Kiwicruiser355 2 года назад

With the macro lens attached to the phone, do you leave the ph camera set to its maximum resolution? My samsung does have an inbuilt macro lens but it is only 1200 x 800 mp.

@LieslHuddleston Год назад

Hi Arthur, sorry for the late reply. Yes, I don't change any camera settings, I don't zoom in or use the macro feature, just the lens. My new phone now also has built in macro and I have not used any outside lenses with it yet.
