Location
This photo was taken in my living roomTime
This was taken in the afternoonLighting
Simple set up just a speedlight camera left using high speed sync to kill any ambient light.Equipment
I used my Canon 7d with Sigma macro lens and a Canon 430ex ii off camera .Inspiration
I love the intricacy of flowers and wanted to capture something simple with one clear subject .Editing
Yes I always post process my photos , with this photo I did the usual clean up , sharpening , colour correction etc..In my camera bag
I have more recently taken too using Fuji X gear as it is much lighter and easier to carry around without loss of image quality.Feedback
A tripod is a must for macro photography and not forgetting a good depth of field . Lots of patience and never ever give up until you have nailed it ..
