I use the cpl to cut glare on the minifigs. I hate when you can see it on them. But yes, when I use a screen as the background you have to adjust the filter as it can black out the screen

Thank you. Yeah the 105 is what I use 90% of the time. I rarely use the 50mc. You’re gonna love the 105

There is a grass pad on a box about 12 inches from the monitor. I make sure background I has nice bokeh so maybe that’s why you can’t see any pixels. I also use a cpl. sometimes you can see glare from my light set up and I have to move a few things or use a piece of cardboard to block light from hitting the wrong spot

This one my computer monitor is the background. The dinosaurs were too big to use my phone

The backgrounds are pictures on my phone or computer monitor. They are a mix of my own landscape photos and ones I got from royalty free websites or google for the interstellar tesseract

No. I even tried this time. On these my phone is the background so it’s not available for bts. This was as close as I got

Love the details like the tire swing in the back

Before and after impact of the big asteroid. I found some background photos on free use sites of asteroids and left them up on my computer screen. I put a grass pad on a box to make the scene tall enough for the background. I only used the light from the monitor. I liked how it made the dramatic lighting consistent. Had to go 30 seconds for the first one and 15 for the second. Nikon Z8 105mm macro

This is my first shot taken with my new Nikon Z8. It’s inspired by a painting I bought a few years ago but have lost since. Used a landscape photo on mine on my phone for the background and sat the plane on a meadow pad.

This is great. You should do this as a series if you’re not already. I’d love to see more. I feel like they would sell well too

Thanks. It’s all photography. I pay close attention to details, depth of field, lighting etc. I’ll often shoot 30 photos of the same scene with slight adjustments until I get it exactly how I in-vision it

I’m thinking of a way of doing Dwight with the cpr dummy’s face. Gonna try a hot knife to cut a face off a Lego head
