Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo 2 months ago in my backyard.

Time

I took it in the morning. It was a beautiful morning, the sky was clear and there was still a bit of dew on the mantis

Lighting

There was nothing special about the lighting besides the fact that it was the dappled morning sunlight.

Equipment

This was shot with a Canon 700D camera mounted on a tripod. The lens used was a Canon macro lens 100mm.

Inspiration

It was all a coincidence. I was trying to take a picture of the mantis only when a fly came along and landed on the mantis' arm.

Editing

There was no processing for this image actually.

In my camera bag

In my bag I usually just have a Canon 700D to take pictures of beautiful everyday things.

Feedback

It's just chance really. Just have a go and you never know, maybe you will be surprised!
