Macro Photography: Natural Light vs Artificial Lighting This bright yellow mushroom had incredible texture on the cap. I started with natural light, then used flexible LEDs to separate it from the background and the amaran Ace 25c to softly fill the shadows in front. Which version wins for you—natural light or artificial lighting? 👇 #macrophotography #LightingComparison #naturemacro #creativephotography #macroshots #amaranpartner amaran | Daniel Aucoin

Lighting This Mushroom Macro Shot What really caught my attention here were the moss filaments gently wrapping around the mushroom cap. To bring that softness forward, I used two Adaptalux flexible LEDs to separate the subject from the background, and an amaran Ace 25c from the side to add a gentle glow before capturing the final image. Final photo: Symbiosis Settings: Canon R5 · 100mm · f/5 · 1/125s · ISO 200 · 40-image stack Gear used (link in bio): – Adaptalux Flexible LEDs – amaran Ace 25c #

Macro Photography with Flexible Lighting – Tiny Mushroom Setup This tiny mushroom caught my attention the moment I saw the curled stem. I placed a flexible LED to shape the light—and as I captured the stack, I used my arm to block part of the light and add shadow to the cap. The result? A moody image I call “Born from Shadow.” 📸 Shot with flexible LED lights 🔗 Gear & lights: Link in bio Let me know what you think—would you have lit it differently? #macro #macrophoto #mushroomphotography #light

Natural or Lit? (Macro) I found these two little helicopter seeds hanging in the forest and tried something simple: one shot using only natural light, and one shot with my flexible LED lights for backlighting. It’s always surprising how a small change in light can completely shift the mood of a macro scene. Which one feels better to you? 👇 If you want to check out the gear I’m using, the link is in my bio. #macro, #macrophotography, #backlighting, #forestmacro, #lightingsetup | Daniel Aucoin

Macro Flexible Lighting Setup – “One Last Breath” This image is called “One Last Breath”—a dandelion puff, photographed in the rain with a flexible lighting setup and an RGB light panel. There’s something about shooting in the rain that brings out the richness in every detail. The curved stem and missing seeds weren’t perfect—but that’s what made it feel honest. It reminded me of childhood, and how simple things used to feel magical. If you're into macro photography, maybe don’t wait for perfect

I left a sweet potato on my counter for about a month… and when it sprouted, I couldn’t resist taking it into the forest for a macro shoot. I took it into the forest and used two amaran Ace 25c lights to light the subject even in bright conditions. The extra power let me underexpose the background and make the sprout stand out, creating a clean, minimalist image. One of the leaves looked to me like the face of a duck — do you see it too? 🦆 15 focus-bracketed images later… this was the result. �

Love at first brush 💖✨#macrophotography Finding beauty in everyday objects is not always easy. Sometimes, all it takes is a shift in perspective, viewing things from a different angle.
