Behind The Lens
Location
The photo was taken in my home using a Daisy plant cultivated in pots. There has been a thunderstorm before and the plants on the balcony were full of water droplets on Leaves and flowers.Time
It was in the middle of the morning.Lighting
After thunderstorm a beautiful light was going on with a shining sun. This marvellous light enter the living room from a great window so I took the Daisy plant and put it on the table in the living room near the window (the light came from the right side and no other light was used). The light on water drop was ok.Equipment
This was shot with a Canon EOS 700D using the macro lens Sigma 105mm/2.8 USM and the tripod. No filters.Inspiration
I am in love with water drops and reflections that i can pick up in them, specially when i can use flowers with beautiful colors that create harmonic shades and subtle nuancesEditing
A little post processing with lightroom to enhance the tenuous natural colors, and a crop of the shotIn my camera bag
Normally I have the 18-55mm lens on my canon camera but if i want to take macro i need to use the sigma lens that is always in my bagFeedback
Do not stop to take photo if you don't obtain what you want immediately. You have to try.....and try .....move the camera position, try with more inclinations, study the water drop that you want to shot if you have a god tripod. Try with more water drops before with your eyes to find the right position until you find the reflection that you prefer. Than study the photo you obtain and the next day you will try again with more belief and clearer ideas. Let Work in manual, low ISO, great aperture to obtain a gentle bokeh.
