Behind The Lens
Location
In Kolkata where I live. The photos were taken during Monsoon right after a heavy shower of rain.Time
Taken in the afternoon.. Around 12'o clock.Lighting
Yes. Since the sky was extremely cloudy and it was quite dark I had use higher ISO to shoot it.Equipment
Nikon D3100, 70-300mm lens.. Manual focus was used for focussing.Inspiration
Just wanted to do something with rain and the effect it has on nature. Also wanted to show how water droplets can appear like pearls on leafs. Many of my previous attempts resulted in utter failures. But this one was a success.Editing
Yes. I darkened the background a bit and did some exposure and color enhancement using Adobe Photoshop. I also cropped it a little bit for proper framing.In my camera bag
Nikon D3100, 18-55, 50mm prime and a 70-300 telephoto lens.Feedback
make sure you get your focus at the right place and concentrate on composition. The droplets must come out clean and sharp. Otherwise the photo may look somewhat bland. Also make sure that the water droplets are still and not running down. Otherwise you won't get that pearl like effect.
