Location
This photo was taken in my backyard raised veggie garden. This particular plant is a dill plant which the swallowtail caterpillars prefer to feed on.Time
It was late afternoon probably around 5 to 6 pm.Lighting
I typically enjoy shooting under natural light conditions and this shot was no different.Equipment
I used a Nikon 1 J1 with a 30-110 mm telephoto lens. I also used a tripod to steady my shot, I remember it being breezy that afternoon.Inspiration
I enjoy seeing the small details in our world around us.Editing
I ran my photo through photoshop express to give the colors of the caterpillar a little more vibrancy.In my camera bag
Well these days I retired my Nikon 1 J1. So now in my bag I carry a Nikon 1 J4 and a Nikon D5500. I also carry a small tripod to steady shots if need be.Feedback
Practice, practice, practice! You may take dozens of shots to get one that looks good, remember you're trying to capture nature, it doesn't model for you.
