Behind The Lens

Location

The photo was taken in my garden. It's amazing how many pictures in that tiny garden.

Time

It was very nice morning after rainy night.

Lighting

The flower with spider was in shadow so had to use flash light

Equipment

This was shot with Nikon D300 and Tamron 60mm lens. As its a focus stack i had to use tripod.

Inspiration

Nature is full of inspiration for me, just have to look around

Editing

Used Helicon Focus for focus stacking and then basic editing on Photoshop

In my camera bag

Always have 2 cameras in my bag. My new Nikon D810 and Nikon D80 converted to infrared. Depends what I'm planning to shoot there will be macro lens, prime 50mm, fisheye or 18-200 mm. Macro ring flash for macro work is very helpful. Almost always carrying with me tripod, trigger cable and various filters.

Feedback

Look around you. For macro photography you don't have to go far, the closest meadow could be full of treasures :)
