This paddlepop stick idea of yours is FANTASTIC…!! Our variation of the whole setup though is to use very fine fishing line and literally wrap it in various patterns around each frame… we use 1lb line as it is the thinnest we can buy in our area… all the very best to everyone… 👋🏼👏🏼👍🏼🎉 🇦🇺
@@davemuckeye1516 hello there Dave thank you kindly for stopping by to send me such a wonderful message I really appreciate it. I hope you are keeping well and safe and hope your enjoying my videos
I'm so glad that you have shared this tip! I have a tripod that can do this with the frame flat on the table, but this new method is brilliant. I did not think that the droplets would stay in place and not all run down to the bottom. I need to try this ASAP!
@@jefferyhaws6942 hi buddy I am so glad you enjoyed this video I do try my best to make things easy so anyone can have a go trust me it works so so well thank you for taking the time to send me such a wonderful message
Welcome back Lee! What a brilliant update to water droplet photography. I am so glad you are once again out from under. Like many others just hearing your voice lifts my mood and gets the creative juices flowing. I hope this is just one of many new videos. You are truly an inspiration!
Hi my friend fishing line is good as well I have tried that one. Some is going to try out some thin cotton thread and send me some pictures. I am so glad you are enjoying it
Welcome back Lee - Great to see you haven’t lost your touch and got over your recent problems Please keep these great videos coming and please stay safe !
Hi my friend thank you for your kind message and support. Welcome to my TH-cam family. I am so glad you are enjoying my videos. If you have any questions or get stuck with anything please feel free to reach out to me
Great to see you back again Lee, what a fab idea using the sticks instead of the glass. Looking forward to seeing you again soon with more great ideas for us. Keep them coming we need you and your ideas. Take care.
Hi Lee it is so good to see you back on here and I love the idea of the ice cream sticks I will try them now. I am so looking forward to meeting you. Take care of yourself 😊
Great to see you back Lee, great to hear your voice again. Have been struggling myself recently but found brilliant support from my local MIND, has transformed me! Looking forward to more videos, no pressure! Best wishes. Terry
Hi Terry thank you ever so much for your kind words. I am so happy to be back I really should not have left it so long to be honest. Making these videos really does help my mental health a lot. I was a fool to slow down on making them
Lee, great as usual. I wonder if colored thread or fishing line might work. Something to try once winter comes to northern Alberta. Take care of yourself.
Hi my friend thank you ever so much for your kindness and support I definitely think that some fine cotton thread would work fantastic. As you could glue it very tightly and if you ruff the cotton up a little with some fine wet and dry sand paper it would definitely give you more places for the water droplets to hold on to. And it would mean you can get a better focus on all the water droplets. I would definitely love to see it my friend I think you have just come up with a very very good idea 👍
morning lee,i,m also lee,from south wales,great to see you back,ime having a break from the bugs,now ime doing all your stuff which is great,i got one of those turntable lights,but that middle light is so harsh,so what i did was undo the 4 screws at the bottom of the unit,,and put bluetack over the top of it,put the lid back on 'and works great,keep the vidio,s coming,ime getting some great stuff,thanks lee,,,,,lee
@@LeeHallphotographyplease could you advise were you bought your coloured reflective card please. Loving your videos, very informative and can’t wait to have a go.
Hi Lee, great to see you back, been looking out for your videos.... Hope you are feeling better, know a bit about that as been though it... I've now started eating lollies and getting fatter by the day to make up the frames.... good to see you back. Colin Devon...
It's so great to have you back, Lee! Some of my best macro images have come from watching your videos. I've yet to try the glue stick/water drops but plan to hit up the dollar store to get some sticks! Another great source for reflective paper is gift bags! I've used those before and they work great. I'd love to hear about other tips people have shared with you. Cheers!
Welcome back Lee! Thanks for your update to this type of water droplet photography. I tried using fine fishing line and it worked beautifully as well. I'm looking forward to seeing more videos from you.
welcome back my friend so glad youre getting back to it Lee great video as always keep that chin up and keep up the good work its very much appreciated
Brilliant, as always, Lee! I enjoyed using the previous method, but this one has so many more possibilities. Take whatever time you need to continue healing-I’m always just happy to learn from you whenever you choose to share.
This is fantastic! Not only the instructions, but just seeing your smile and hearing "happy snapping" again. I was so desperate to see you again that I was going to fly to your town from Canada and kick your ass down to your studio.😁😆
Such a gift to have the benefit of your guidance and expertise. Thank you for your generosity! Is there a way we can donate as a “thank you” for your videos?
God bless you my friend for your kindness. At this time we are all struggling for money and I really appreciate your kindness but your comments and support are all I need. It really makes it worth me doing the videos
Welcome back Lee! Great video, I love the new ideas. Sorry to hear you've been struggling recently, but glad you've come out of the darkness and into the light again.
Thank you like I said In the video it really was my fault in a way I put a lot of pressure onto my self. It's just hard to get back when you go deep but with the help from people like yourself it really makes a massive difference
Hi Lee, It's wonderful to see you back. I photographed the drops on the glasses and it was great. I will try it with the lollipop sticks. It's a good idea. Thank you.
God bless you my friend thank you from the bottom of my heart. I read appreciate your kindness and support it is so nice to be back and most of all to see such wonderful comments
Not having much luck with glue sticks. I was going to try fishing line. Not sure what thickness to use 🙂 you’ve got me hooked on wanting to do these. Great images Lee.
Hi mate I have used fishing line but I had to get a very very fine one. It works just as good and you can glue it where you want and keep it tight at the same time. I think the line is 0.5mm or 1.1 lb

I’ve only recently discovered your videos and have been binge-watching your old ones. I love your enthusiasm, vision, and technique, and especially your friendly and personable nature. I’ve never tried macro photography in the past (been “seriously” photographing since 1975) but after seeing your videos I’m inspired to give it a go! Looking forward to more of your videos! Cheers from Tennessee, USA!

God bless you my friend I am so so happy you enjoyed it. I think it really must be one of my best ideals yet. Thank you for talking the time to stop and send me such a wonderful message
Good to see you back. Love your simple, inexpensive ideas. I did this one a while ago using the old method and they turned out really good. So I will be trying this one soon.
Hello my good friend I have really been messing around to try and make it more easy and trying to get better shots with out photo stacking this really does work so gooooood
Wow , how wonderful to see you back I was begining to worry a bit as we both have the same problem. Anyway off to buy some Lollypop sticks and try this new method. It looks so simple but I am one of those people who seem to make everything complicated so please keep the videos comming as I am so greatful too you (and your other supporters). Especially now that winters on the way.
Hello my friend thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking the time to send me such a wonderful message. It really has been hard but I am so glad to be back
Lee, brilliant mate. Good to see you back and I'm sure we can all relate to the things you've said in this video. Stay strong pal. Ive just ordered a glue gun, lollipop sticks, reflective cards and couple of those cool mist sprays to try this tomorrow, can't wait!! 😁 those spray bottles make so much sense compared to regular sprays!!
Thank you kindly my friend I am so happy to be back having fun. Trust me those sprays are a total blessing and really help build up the water droplets. I really appreciate you taking the time out to send me such a wonderful message
@@LeeHallphotography more than welcome mate! Your videos are fantastic and you explain things very well! I've been doing macro for a number of years now but it's always great seeing what other people do and borrowing ideas from people. Macro is and always will be my favourite type of photography 😁
Hi Lee, tried this today with varying degrees of success and failure. Using a pump spray with the hand certainly tires the finger. What is the sprayer that you use? I have looked on Amazon and eBay, and can only find a 30ml Nano Spray. Is this the one? Thanks in advance, keep up the great work Lee.
