Waterdrop Photography Ideas

Shooting water drops is a lot of fun! Catch them where they naturally form, or make your own with glycerine and water. #photography #waterdrops #macrophotography #photographylover #photographytipsforbeginners

Macro Photography: Waterdrop on a Hibiscus Petal

I love the rich red colour of these hibiscus petals. If you don't have natural dew or rain drops, you can make your own by mixing glycerine with water. The glycerine gives them staying power. #photography #flowers #waterdrops #hibiscusflower #photographytipsforbeginners #macrophotography

Abstract Macro Photography: Jacaranda blossoms

A windy day can be used to your advantage. This abstract shot of jacaranda blossoms was achieved with: 1) lots of wind 2) high shutter speed (1/1000s) 3) selective focus #photography #flowers #macrophotography #photographytipsforbeginners

Abstract Photography: Coreopsis grandiflora blossoms

You can create beautiful abstract shots by deliberately defocusing your lens on a DSLR camera. Set your lens to manual focus and give it a go! 📸 Canon EOS 1300D/Rebel T6 🔎 Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 L IS USM Macro #photography #abstractartist #flowers #photographytricks #photographytechniques

Photography: Coreopsis flowers

Coreopsis grandiflora (large-flowered tickseed) make great photography subjects. They come in gorgeous colours, move gracefully, and wear light well. #flowers #macrophotography #nature #photographylover #colorfulphotography #macrolens

Macro Photography: Coreopsis flower at sunset

The soft, golden light just before sunset makes it a great time for flower photography. There are lots of opportunities for backlight and illumination effects, as well creating that soft dreamy fairy feel. I took this shot of a Coreopsis grandiflora blossom as the sun was setting 📸 #photography #flowers #macrophotography #sunsetphotography #goldenhouraesthetic #goldenhourmagic

Abstract Photography: Flowers in the Evening Light

One way to produce abstract shots is to defocus your lens. You'll have to switch from autofocus to manual focus. This will allow you to take a photo despite focus not being achieved. #photography #photographytricks #photographytechniques #flowers #abstractartist #macrophotography #naturephotographer

Photography: Moody Evening

"Learning on the job" is a fun way to approach photography. I was trying for waterdrop reflections shots for so long that the sun actually set on me, and I got this moody shot instead. sometimes inspiration strikes when you're on the go. #photography #nature #waterdrops #sunsetphotography #moodyvibes
