Behind The Lens

Location

This is a piece of grass that was growing at the side of the road in Seattle. I picked it and took it home and put it on my dining table with a green piece of cardboard behind it. I had only purchased my first camera a couple of weeks prior, this is one of my first shots.

Time

3pm

Lighting

Natural light through a window

Equipment

Sony A57 with Sigma 105/2.8 Macro

Inspiration

The grass looked interesting and thought a macro shot could be interesting too

Editing

Small boost to saturation

In my camera bag

Sony A57, Fuji X70.

Feedback

With a narrow dof macro shot, take several shots with the plane of focus in different areas to see which you like best
