Behind The Lens
Location
I was visiting a zoo in South Devon, England.Time
This was about 10.30amLighting
It was a brightish morning! With a little light cloud so lighting was not too bad.Equipment
I was using a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ150. I have use Panasonic's for a number of years & find I get on reasonably well with them.Inspiration
The flower was growing in a small grassy bank. It was March so there was not a lot of colour around & this flower stood out.Editing
I adjusted the exposure a little on Photoshop Elements.In my camera bag
I am a very lazy photographer. I only really carry my camera. It's lightweight so easy to take with me all the time. I usually have a tripod in my car & that's where it stays!Feedback
Always be aware of everything around you. Although I had gone to the zoo to capture shots of animals, I was also aware of the flowers, trees, sky & everything in between. Just keep looking!
