    Thank you Scott for the feature and tips and it was great to see all the other cool images - I especially liked the cucumber beetle photo. I will have to look out for them and others insects here in Chicago. Thanks again!

    I am happy to see my photo in your video, I had no hope while I send this photo. And I took this photo in outdoor not indoor, seriously😢. I got many useful information from this video. In reverse ring, I get only few photos in perfect focus which leads to out of composition from my perspective. In upcoming photos I will keep in mind that aperture settings 😇. Thank you for reviewing my photo.

    Great video as always! Thanks so much for including my green beetle photo. Really appreciate your feedback. The vintage lens indeed gives a cool look but is honestly frustrating to use- so I look forward to getting a true macro lens for much closer insect photos in the future! Loved all the other entries as well, really good stuff and so informative. Thanks again and have a great weekend!

    Nice video Scott, and really interesting tips of yours. Personally I would put the dragonfly perch more on the bottom left diagonal of the frame, just to draw an arrow with the dragonfly itself. Anyway, beautiful idea reviewing others pictures like that. Have a nice day Scott!

    The new noise reduction thing in lightroom works really well. It's just doesn't feel worth using it all the time because it creates a new DNG file so you end up with duplicates in your library. Maybe in a future version when they've got it more stable they'll be able to turn it into a regular slider and just render the output on demand.

    Hi Barney. Yeah, I'm not keen on that either. But it does do a pretty good job. I'll stick with Topaz for my denoise for now, but this is promising. Thanks for watching.

    Hi Safiqur. I do the photo review videos about once every three months. So the next one should be around the end of July. A few weeks before that I’ll put a vote on the KZread community tab to decide the theme for the review. If you’re a subscriber you’ll see community posts and polls appear in your KZread feed.
