Behind The Lens
Location
I took this at our local municipal building. They have a nice pond with Swans and they had a bed of these flowers that were calling out to be photographed.Time
It was in the later afternoon, I believe I had just picked up my daughter from school across the street.Lighting
This was natural outdoor lighting. A little cloudy that day.Equipment
This was taken with my trusty Canon Rebel Xsi and a Canon 50mm f/1.8 lens.Inspiration
I loved the color and there was a great spot where I could lie in the flower bed to get a heads on perspective.Editing
I use Aperture for post-processing. Nothing special but some contrast and color work.In my camera bag
My Canon Rebel Xsi, Canon 50mm f/1.8, Canon 17-40mm f/4 L and Canon 70-200mm f/4 L lenses. An Ex 480 speedlight. Along with a couple of Nd and polarizer filters.Feedback
Don't be afraid to get a little dirty. Try from many perspectives. Look around before shooting.
