Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in my home against a black foam board. I am a self taught photographer so I was practicing with lighting and post processing.

Time

Mid morning- the light was shining nicely through the window, casting nice shadows on the petals.

Lighting

Never be afraid to experiment with what is around you to get different shadows and highlights!

Equipment

This was shot on a Canon t5i.

Inspiration

I loved how even in death, there is still beauty.

Editing

I wanted a solid black background to really make the flower stand out; I burned the edges of the petals and boosted the contrast of the black foam board to get a nice, deep background.

In my camera bag

I always have my nifty fifty lens with me wherever I go.

Feedback

Patience, practice, and creativity!
