Behind The Lens

Location

This shot was taken outdoors in my garden.

Time

Captured around noon, approximately 13.00 o' clock.

Lighting

The light was so bright and the bug was so shiny, standing upright on a wooden door, waiting for me to capture the moment.

Equipment

This was shot with a Nikon camera, model D7000 and a 50mm f/1.8 lens. No other equipment was involved.

Inspiration

Beautiful bugs and creatures have inspired many photographers from all over the world to take pictures of them. I am one of them :)

Editing

Yes, I used Photoshop to increase the contrast of the photo, as well as to increase the color intensity, because due to the light the colors were a little pale. I also cropped the frame of this version to make it more cute!!

In my camera bag

The first thing I always pack is my Nikon 50 mm f/1.8 prime. The second one is the Sigma 105 mm f/2.8 prime and the Sigma 24 mm f/1.4 prime. Also the Nikon 18-105 mm f/3.5-5.6 is a good solution for making it possible to shoot most subjects with just one lens. Every lens has its purpose.

Feedback

Let yourself be free and shoot the moment. Who knows, someday you will take the perfect shot.
