Backlit Leaf - Extreme
In this easy to follow tutorial I show you I took stacked macro shots of some beautiful backlit leaves with both my Laowa 25mm ultra macro lens at 2.5x magnification and the 100mm macro lens from Canon at 1x, life-size magnification.
I briefly talk about my setup, exposure settings, provide basic editing tips for post processing and emphasise some key points one has to be aware of when taking stacked macro shots.
If you have any questions or are unsure of something, please get in touch and I'd be happy be to help!
Also if you haven't subscribed yet, please consider as it would help me create more content! Thanks a lot!:)
