Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in my backyard. Peonies are my favorite variety of flower and provide me with inspiration for painting my watercolours. This one happens to my favorite one in the garden..

Time

This wa taken later in the afternoon when the light is good and the shadows are great.

Lighting

I like to photos of my garden in the late afternoon because the light tends to be softer and the shadows are increased.

Equipment

Believe it or not this particular photo was taken with a Panasonic Lumix dmc-lx5 point and shoot. I live this camera for quick photos as you have some flexibility with settings.

Inspiration

I love the colours of this particular peony and it has been inspiration for my watercolours. I love the smell and just sitting in the backyard by my pond enjoying my garden.

Editing

No post processing was done.

In my camera bag

I always carry my prime lens with a a couple of macro lenses. I love taking close up photos.

Feedback

Take photos of what you love. I love the outdoors and nature so many of my photos are on those topics.
