Behind The Lens

Location

Right in my front yard.

Time

Evening, I love the golden hour before sunset.

Lighting

I like shooting with backlight or filtered sunlight

Equipment

Nikon d5100 18-55mm 3.5 and natural light.

Inspiration

I was enjoying my front yard and noticed the coneflowers were at a unique stage. So I waited until the light was skimming them just right and went for an angle where I could blow out the background and show a unique perspective. Flower pics are pretty common, but usually not shot from below. :)

Editing

I always make sure my exposure is just right and I added a vignette.

In my camera bag

A reflector...my fave lens is my 50mm 1.8 and I like the Expodisc for manual white balance.

Feedback

Wait for the light to be just right and try different angles, move all around the subject until the frame and perspective are something special.
