Behind The Lens

Location

The photo was taken in our garden in Pécs, Hungary. I had to be quick because it was moving so fast.

Time

It was on a warm sunny afternoon in last summer, so I could take my time with composing the picture.

Lighting

It was a sunny but late afternoon, so this made the photo's colour a bit warmer.

Equipment

This was shot with a Nikon D5000 and Sigma 18.0-200.0 lens.

Inspiration

I wanted to make the bug look bigger on the photo, so we could share the feeling when the other, smaller bugs or insects meet him.

Editing

I didn't use any post-processing.

In my camera bag

As a beginner hobby photographer I only have my Nikon D5000 and Sigma 18.0-200.0 lens, so I always carry them in my bag. I also have my Minolta Polarizing filter and a spare memory card too.

Feedback

When you are walking on the street or in the woods you should always pay attention to everyting, beacause you never know where and when will be your next photo topic. When you found it, be patient with the living organisms because they can create very uniqe pictures.
