In this week's easy macro photography tutorial, I made a fortunate mistake in leaving my camera set to monochrome mode, resulting in some gorgeous, moody black and white macro photos. I show how I shoot these images at home, using a basic LED light and my Canon R5.

I explain how I position the light, how I adjust the power for best effect and the camera settings I use to achieve a high contrast, low-key look.

Finally, I show the minimal editing required in Lightroom to finish these pictures off.
