Behind The Lens

Location

At My home I took this Photo.We have an abundance of Tiger Lillies in our front Yard.This beautiful Butterfly was just a bonus for the shot.

Time

I think I took this Photo around mid afternoon

Lighting

The lighting was great.Full Sun around 3:00 P.M.

Equipment

I used a Fuji FinePix HS20EXR Aperture500/100 Shutter Speed 10/3200 Focal Length6910/100 No tripod or flash

Inspiration

I have always loved the beauty of Butterflies

Editing

I have optimized this photo to get the best contrast for this shot

In my camera bag

I usually carry My Fine Pix Camera to where I want to take My photos.I have 3 lenses but I never use them.At least I haven't yet.

Feedback

Patience is the key to any good photo.I have taught Myself.The more You use Your camera the more You will learn about its features and what they mean.And if You are like Me and have essential tremors the camera tends to be shook a fair amount.Just do the best You can,take More shots,and try to use a tripod when You have a chance.I very rarely use one but I should more often I think.And if You want to learn from some of the best Photographers, I would suggest that You give View Bug a try.
