Behind The Lens

Location

It was taken in my home when i was practicing macro shots with my new and first dslr camera.

Time

It was at night because i wanted to learn how to control my own light.

Lighting

Because at the time i did it i was very new to photograthy and i was experimenting i used only torches.i did however use water droplets on rose to try and reflect the water.if done now id probably use a different set up.

Equipment

Nikon d3200.if i remember right it was my 18-55mm kit lens because it was my first camera i only had the kit lenses at that time.no flashes just torches but they were the LED type

Inspiration

I always loved flower pictures especially detailed ones they are very beautifull

Editing

I cropped it a bit to get closer image and i was just tinkering with hue/saturation ect because i was new to editing and it turned green and i thought wow thats cool and i kept it that way.

In my camera bag

Now i got more experience i usually have my nikon d5300 with my 18-70mm lens on it.i usually take my prime 35mm f1.8 with me too.if i want to do something specific like wildlife its usually my 70-300mm sigma lens but then i take my monopod or vanguard tripod with me because of the weight of lens and its heavy with no vibration control but i do want to get better lens now because its good for a starter cheap lens but now im more experienced i want better glass I also take ND filter and colour filters but the esentials like spare batteries,lens cloth,hurricane blower are a must

Feedback

If your new to photograthy and your doing it to practice try the same shot with different settings like apeture,shutter speed,focus points ect and for each shot white down settings for each picture so you can compare results and also if you love macro work a decent tripod. Best bit of advice i had is there is no such thing as a bad picture if the result is what you wanted.
