Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken on my front porch step in late summer.

Time

It was around 3 or 4 in the afternoon.

Lighting

The lighting was all natural.

Equipment

I was just using my Olympus SZ-14 point and shoot, hand held, with no flash.

Inspiration

I am always inspired by the beauty of nature and the fine hair like, soft, smooth, silky, iridescence of a butterfly's wings.

Editing

The only thing I did to this photo was to crop it once.

In my camera bag

As stated this is a point and shoot I always carry in my purse.

Feedback

Always be prepared! Then it's a matter of time and patience. Especially with all wild life.
