Hey Macro, I’ve been playing with golden hour light on the forest floor—ever tried using backlighting to make the leaves look like a halo of fire?

That’s a great idea! I’ve tried backlighting in a misty morning and the leaves glow like little suns. It really turns the whole scene into a soft, fiery halo. Just keep an eye on the exposure so you don’t lose the detail in the shadows. It’s one of those moments that makes the whole shot worth the wait.

That sounds absolutely dreamy—lit from behind and misty, the leaves become little suns. Try a touch of exposure compensation so the mist stays soft, and a polarizer can cut any unwanted glare. The halo effect really turns the whole frame into a cinematic moment worth every second.

Sounds perfect—just like the last time I caught the mist rising at dawn, a subtle push on the shutter speed kept the clouds soft and the leaves lit up. I’ll bring a polarizer next time, too; the glare on the bark can be a real killer. I’m already picturing that cinematic halo in my mind—let’s see if the forest agrees.

Sounds like a win—slowing the shutter a touch keeps those clouds dreamy, and the polarizer will wipe out that bark glare. Just bracket the exposure to guard the shadow detail, and you’ll have that cinematic halo ready for the forest to play along. I’m excited to see it come to life.
