Behind The Lens
Location
At an outdoor car park in the Black Forest in Germany whilst visiting a rescued bear sanctuary.Time
It was quite near mid-day as I was due to collect some relatives for another trip at 1 pm.Lighting
The weather was sunny intervals & behind me at the time.Equipment
I used a close up setting on my Canon powershotsx50hs, no other equipment was used.Inspiration
At the time I was taking photo's of a pale yellow butterfly, when it settled on a rocky outcrop of the car park surround. My partner spotted this lizard + 1 other nearby & pointed them out to me, they were much easier to photograph as they lay motionless in the sunshine than following a flighty butterfly who wouldn't settle for long.Editing
There was no need, as it was a close up under ideal conditions.In my camera bag
I usually have a spare battery for my canon power shot + a Nikon SLRFeedback
I carry my camera with me at all times as you never know what you will see whilst going about your everyday life. So always keep your camera closes no matter where you are. I am just an amateur photographer with an interest in taking photo's of nature, landscapes & my Grandchildren.
