Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo in my backyard , Pasuruan , East Java, Indonesia . I was a professional photographer who likes photographing small animals

Time

It is one of the photos that I like , because I remember when I was alone at home and do not know what I should do . So when at 6 am I rushed to take a camera and walked to the back of the house and the spiders on the sidelines of moss that spreads on the walls of the house.

Lighting

For technical equipment , especially the lighting , I simply rely on the bounce flash of my own

Equipment

To take macro photographs . I often use a 50 mm lens fix that I connect with tube extenstion manual or sometimes use a close-up filter depending on the object to be my photos. tripod is a must so that the photos do not shake . while I make bounce flash paper.

Inspiration

I was inspired by the results of work of the relatives, acquaintances , my friend Mr. Noordin Seruyan . always competent with the results from macros.

Editing

Yes of course. of course, I always rely on post-processing that will strengthen the mood of the results of my photos. I always use Photoshop for Post - processing , mengeai this photo I relied on technical layering and blending two different exposures of the two images , as well as layering to add colors gradually make it more attractive and eye catching.

In my camera bag

certainly , the Nikon D300s , because that was the only camera I had . 50 mm fixed lens 1.8 I like the sharpness of the result. Sometimes I take too flash .

Feedback

For macro shooting , one important thing to note. Patience, patience and discipline to keep the mood photographing small objects . especially the behavior of small animals must understand. Try to get up early , because the moments that small animals are so easy to take selfie together . Try not to attract too much attention these animals , by not using flashy colored clothes , wear perfume and others .
