Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in my back flower area off my back porch. A rural ranching area in Eastern Colorado.

Time

Taken in the afternoon as I am amazed at the way plants follow the sun.

Lighting

All natural nature lighting.

Equipment

Cellphone, no flash just raw natural nature.

Inspiration

The perfect petals of the sunflower and the whispy clouds shouted at me for a photo shoot.

Editing

No process used, original image.

In my camera bag

Just use my cell phone, don't own a camera.

Feedback

Lots of shots of what it is you want to capture.
