Behind The Lens

Location

In my hometown in Indiana.

Time

Early afternoon!

Lighting

It was out in my moms flower garden, and we have a huge tree kind of shading it. So totally natural light, with a big natural diffuser:)

Equipment

Sony a37 with my 50 mm lens. No tripod. I usually just do hand held.

Inspiration

I loved the lazy afternoon feel to it with butterflies flitting around the flowers. The butterflies drew me in.

Editing

The only post processing I do is tweak my exposure.

In my camera bag

I always have my Sony a37 in my bag, my 30 mm macro prime goes next because macro is my fav! Then goes my 50 mm 1.2 prime. Gives me a nice depth and beautiful light.

Feedback

My advice would be, you won't get it the first shot. It took me a lot to get this one. Be patient, and be relaxed and flexible.
