Behind The Lens

Location

This was taken in the back yard of my previous house

Time

Right about sunset as the flowers were closing

Lighting

I almost didn’t see him as the flower was smaller than a M&M

Equipment

Panasonic GF-6 with an Olympus 6mm macro lens. Lighting was created by a small pen light.

Inspiration

I had a slow day taking many a blurry shot of bees around an Easter bush and had given up. Just as I was heading in for the evening I spotted this.

Editing

I used the filters on Instagram and then saved it to my computer

In my camera bag

Now I have a canon 50d with the usual assortment of lenses and tripods.

Feedback

Use chopsticks to turn over leaves.
