Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo on my front porch.

Time

It was about 10 a.m.

Lighting

Nothing

Equipment

A little point and shoot Cannon in natural daylight.

Inspiration

I love butterflies but this is actually a moth. I saw it fluttering around and wanted to capture it feeding on the lilacs.

Editing

None at all. But I did take several shots and this was the best one.

In my camera bag

I have now moved up to a Lumix Z70 and I usually carry a tripod and binoculars to better see the birds.

Feedback

Be open to what comes to you naturally. Also keep a point and shoot camera in your car's glove box.
