This was taken at a local poppy field. My son and daughter in law want me to take some photo's of them and my grand daughter.

Location
This photo was taken in a local corn field not far from where I live. My son and daughter in law had asked me to take some photo's of them and my grand daughter a little while ago, but I couldn't think of a place to take them. But whilst driving home one day I drove past the field and Bingo. The perfect photo shoot. So when I got home I phoned them up and said I have found the perfect place and we are going tomorrow.Time
The photo was taken in the afternoon, it is just one of about 200 photo's I took that day. The weather was perfect.Lighting
As I am purely a novice. I just used the natural filter setting on the camera.Equipment
I used a Fujifilm HS50 EXR camera and nothing else. I don't have a DSLR camera yet or any extra equipment like a tripod.Inspiration
I like to take natural photo's and capture natural reactions and moments in time. Rather than getting people to pose for me.Editing
The only post processing I do is crop the photo I feel it needs it. Or add a filter to try and enhance it. As I have said I am purely a novice and the only software I have a what came with the camera.In my camera bag
The only equipment I have in my bag is my Fuji camera, charger, spare battery, spare memory stick and a pocket camera.Feedback
My only advice is to try and take natural photo's rather that getting people to pose for you. And also take as many photo's as possibly as you can always delete the bad one's, but never recapture that perfect moment. I actually got my son and daughter to just walk round and told them to forget I wasn't there with them.
