This photo was taken during my morning walk in our gardenTime
For some reason I find insects tend to be a little bit more active in the morning.Lighting
Personally I like using natural lighting.Equipment
This shot was taken with my trusty little Olympus SH-1 using the macro setting.Inspiration
For the past six years I have posted a daily photo on the website 365 project so during my daily walks I am on the look out for anything that catches my attention but over the years I have developed a keen eye for spotting insects as they come in so many different shapes, sizes and colours.Editing
I usually post photos that are straight out of the camera but I'm pretty sure I may have cropped this particular shot a little bit.In my camera bag
Due to the convince of their size I nearly always have my Olympus SH-1 and Olympus SZ30MR with me at all times. But I also have an Olympus Stylus 1 and an Olympus E510.Feedback
Insects are easily disturbed but if possible try a couple of different angles and get as close as possible.
