Behind The Lens

Location

the photo was taken at my home in koh samui, where i life over 23years now. i am self taught photographer and learn all by myself and want learn more with every photo.

Time

this is one of my favorite image from butterfly. i took this on 24. october in the morning at 07.38 am.

Lighting

i want this image looks like a dreamlight, because of the beautiful sunlight come inside to our terrace.

Equipment

this was shot on a 5d mark 3 with the canon 100 mm macro lens

Inspiration

in this moment as i saw the beautiful sunlight on our terrace and the smal butterfly, i feel like i have to take the photo. we have many butterfly around our garden but this was special from sunlight.

Editing

usually i use first lightroom for the processing and bring as to photoshop to finnish the processing, but here i use also the nik color collection to give them the dreamy look.

In my camera bag

In my camera bag in my camerabag i have always a 5d mark 3 and a lens with 16-35 mm, 100-400mm, 100mm macro lens, 24-70mm lens and one flash.

Feedback

run with open your eye's the world around you and look what you can see from different angle or different lights. if do you like something different from normal photo, than try hard to get this special photo. even if you have to pay some extra money, but you get success and honor of this.
