Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo in the Botanical garden of Prague (Czech Republic), it's really lovely place to go while feeling stressful or exhausted. You can just chill out here. And it's also one of the best places to stay while you're in Prague, it's quite big, as well. Another amazing thing is, that it's not far away from Prague's ZOO, which is also incredible.

Time

Well, thats quite tricky question, since it's few monts ago. However, I think it was taken in early afternoon on quite sunny day.

Lighting

I've actually stood towards those flowers, to overshadow them, since it wasn't the best possible light. Just wanted to make sure, it won't be over exposed.

Equipment

This photo was taken on Sony A6300, an APS-C camera and 90mm Sony G-Master Macro lens, I believe. Sinc it wasn't dark, there was no need to use tripod or any other similar equipment.

Inspiration

Well, in this case, I just love macro photography. I'm always so excited to look at all these images. I really wanna try it out more, but I don't have the right equimpent.

Editing

I sure did. I used to use Luminar, back in those days, I believe. And I made just normal stuff, like with any other image.

In my camera bag

In my bag? That's a simple one. I always take my (new) Sony A7III, my Tamron 28-200mm, powerbank, in case my battery dies and my microfibre towel. If I need to use tripod, like in the evening, or early morning, when the light is amazing, however, when I wanna use ISO as low as possible (which I always want) I taky my Hamma tripod, as well.

Feedback

You have to be patient, that's the main one. Also good light hels a lot.
