    If anyone is looking for cheap glass, go to your local store (Kmart in Australia) and buy the cheapest photo frame with glass. Just choose your size to suit and like Stewart Wood use cloth tape around the edges.

  • @rolandf7419
    @rolandf7419 Před 3 lety +3

    Going back in reviewing this video again, I realize that when you use the spray bottle that several of the water drops need to be similar in size so you can get multiple images in focus. In my first attempt, I either had the original water drop (placed using the blunt end syringe) in focus while the other images were blurred. Thanks, Stewart for sharing the process for water droplets on glass.

  • @mathankumarponnusamy4018

    Hi Stewart... Thank you loads for the simple & clear instructions. Great work and keep 'em coming. 1 question is about the glass material/dimensions/thickness. Could you please provide it? Also, how did you wrap it around the edges to keep it scratch-free? Thanks

  • @kuscollama9522
    @kuscollama9522 Před 3 lety

    Very nice! I'll try the rain-x! I use my Kindle fire HD, it works the same, I think. Will retry, as mine a few years ago wasn't so great. Thanks.

    Usual great video , Stewart.I just tried it and got some really good images which Im now using has my wallpaper on my pc,phone and tablet. i tried some of mys sons screenwash at first because it said it contained rain repellant - didnt work, the drops flattened - so I got the Rain-X and it was perfect.Cheers our kid.

    Bonjour Stewart. Ta vidéo est superbe. Peux tu me dire quel objectif utilises tu ? Macro je suppose

    How do you connect camera to monitor to get full view of what your taking as I would like to give this a go.

  • @larrycostello
    @larrycostello Před 3 lety

    Brilliant I'm definitely gonna try this. Anything else similar to water repellent you used? Ta

    • @parvinder2cool
      @parvinder2cool Před 2 lety

      I think 3:1 water glycerine solution can also be used..but haven't tried yet

  • @mdturnerinoz
    @mdturnerinoz Před 3 lety

    Just curious where you got the glass pane. BTW Without the RainX, would 1:3 glycerine water work as well? I use that for my flower photography to give the flower some interest.

  • @tube396

    What brand and model is the tripod you're using in this video? I'm having trouble trying to find one like it.

  • @whitefatdude
    @whitefatdude Před 3 lety

    Love the composition i like to try it out myself, but i have one question to you. I want to buy the Laowa 100 mm 2x macro but everyone says that it will work best with mirrorless camera but i have a canon 70d. Tell me is it still worth it

    • @hanklevesque426
      @hanklevesque426 Před 3 lety

      I use the Laois 100mm with a Canon 5D IV - very sharp and easy to use as a manual focus lens. Not sure where you got the info that it’s best for mirrorless cameras? When given the choice between my Canon 100mm macro or the Laowa, I choose the Laowa every time.

    "RainX" - Thank you so much. Had issues with flat droplets, and odd shaped droplets. Great tip!
    Oops - speak English please. Lol

  • @chrissysimpson6692

    great idea ...where did you get the pane of glass ?

    • @StewartWoodArt
      @StewartWoodArt  Před 2 lety

      From a fish tank but you can get them from picture frames.

  • @debbiesutherland7858

    Could this be done using a camera on a mobile phone? Fantastic!!

    • @rosselgirl3
      @rosselgirl3 Před 2 lety +1

      If you mean can you use the camera on your phone to create these images, the answer is YES! I teach a kids’ class on water droplet refraction, and we only use smartphones. It’s actually easier than using a DSLR, in my opinion.

    Can you do a video on using a photography ball?
