Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken at Hilton Head Island, South Carolina, US

Time

At around 8 AM when the light was just above okay level, not too much shine, not too cloudy. But if she was around 7 - 7:30 AM at same location, this would turn out to be more beautiful. Butterflies are butterflies :-) We cannot ask them to come to a place according to our wish...At least she turned around at 8 o clock.

Equipment

Nikon D5000 and 55-200mm Nikkor lens

Inspiration

Nothing but her beauty

Editing

I have not used much post processing to it, other than adding little bit of saturation and the watermark

In my camera bag

I have Nikon D600, Tamron 150-600, Nikkor 50mm prime lens, Rokinon 80mm prime lens (manual focus)

Feedback

Some people say like this, Right moment at right time...But remember behind every great photo, there must be a photographer's long waiting eagerness to capture the best moment. Things like birds, animals, butterflies etc will not wait for you to click, you need to wait for them to show up and if they are there where the light is just amazing, you are a lucky photographer.
