Behind The Lens

Location
I took this photo in my back yard when I noticed that it was on my sweatshirt on the clothes line.
Time
Time of day was early afternoon with an overcast sky.
Lighting
The natural light from the overcast sky was perfect to capture this close up.
Equipment
I used my Olympus Tough camera that I always have with me, just the perfect camera to have in my pocket and has a really nice close up feature.
Inspiration
I love macro and when I saw the bee on the sweatshirt I loved the texture of the material with the bee on top and the pollen shows up good as well.
Editing
No post processing.
In my camera bag
I have the Olympus Tough and a Nikon D5200 with an 18-55mm and a 55-200mm lenses,
Feedback
Take lots of shots of everything cause you never know what will look better lighting wise and angles. Most of all have fun and never think you can't get the shot you are wanting.
