Behind The Lens

Location

Boynton Beach, FL, in my front yard.

Time

Around 1pm.

Lighting

On board flash was used.

Equipment

Canon T3i, EF-S 18-55mm lens, on board flash, white printer paper for BG.

Inspiration

My front yard is literally covered with these guys and im always trying to find new/different ways to photograph them.

Editing

Did a little cloning on the white BG to get rid of some spots.

In my camera bag

Canon T3i, 18-55 & 55-250mm lenses, lens wipes, large zip lock bag, pocket knife and band aids(im quite accident prone lol).

Feedback

Have a second person handy to hold the white printer paper (its quite hard to hold the paper and deal with the camera all by yourself).
