Behind The Lens

Location

the photo was taken by small lake Dubnik near city Stara Tura, Slowakia

Time

It was early in the morning (5:30 a.m.). The weather was perfect (cold, frog, wet) for the photographing and I was looking for some insect.

Lighting

my top five tips to shooting images like this: 1. To have a neccessary technics - flash Canon 480II+ hand made difuzor (that is the secret of my photography). 2. To be interested in insects. 3. To be prepared to make make the photo early in the morning 4. To have fun while photographing 5. To shoot, to shoot and to shoot 

Equipment

Canon 7D , Canon mp-e 65 1-5x, extern Falsh canon 480II+handmade difuzor, but without triopod- I´m to lazy and impatien to use a tripod

Inspiration

I like Robber Fly - especially the eyes with honeycomb pattern and luckily was dew cap - the eyes was with water balls which made " diopter effect "

Editing

I am using color vibration and sharpening in Photoshop. Sharpening – I have special practice High Pass filter– 1. Duplicate The Background Layer 2. Change The Blend Mode Of The Duplicate Layer To “Overlay 3. Apply The “High Pass” Filter To The Duplicate Layer – radius 1,2-2 4. Change The Blend Mode To “Soft Light” Or “Hard Light” If Needed To Adjust sćharpening

In my camera bag

Canon 7D Tokina 12-24, Kood ND šedý canon mp-e 65 1-5 canon ef 100/2,8 Canon EF 70-200/2,8 Flash Canon 430II

Feedback

My favorite kind of photography is Macro. It`s another world, which can be seen only under our feet. We can discover a world of small monsters. Each fly, bee and spider is a perfect predator or a warring victim in this empire. It`s always a big surprise for me to find out how many species, forms and colors exist in this kingdom. I see the things around me a bit differently after each visit in this micro-world. I try to look at them in their own way. It`s very funny
