Location
This was taken in my backyard garden. I love to go out right when the snow melts to look for my favorite crocus flowers that usually first to bloom in the garden.Time
I took it on a late afternoon when the bees were busy visiting the flowers in the sun.Lighting
Afternoon early spring sunlight.Equipment
Canon T3i and a short lens 18-55mm. No flash just the afternoon spring sunlight.Inspiration
I love to watch nature at work. Flowers are my most favorite to photograph since there is lots of color plus never know what will visit it.Editing
I did do some color saturation but that is about all I did do to the image. The flowers and bees speak for their selves.In my camera bag
Canon t3i but recently past year I upgraded to the T6i model. Several short lens, 22mm, 40mm, 18-55mm, 75-300mm, 55-250mm. I also own a fisheye manual lens and a manual 500mm lens. Flash external and uv lens protectors.Feedback
Patience and a great spot in the afternoon sunlight. I like nature light better for it is softer and color saturation. Getting down low and view flowers at ground level rather than from above gives the image more interest.
