Location
This pic was taken on my balcony which faces South West allowing for some magical sunsets most evenings. I noticed the bee while I was relaxing on a warm Australian summers day just before sundown.Time
Around 5:45PM as the sun was about to set behind the horizon.Lighting
Just the sun as my back lightEquipment
Iphone 5 - I am an absolute amateur clicker but have always been interested in photography. Fortunately smart phones are continuously improving allowing amateurs like me a bit of fun and the occasional lucky shot. I did have to get close to the bee and stabilise the phone on the balcony edge.Inspiration
I try to look for composition in nature and colour. I have some graphic design experience and look for the same elements when I am designing any press media.Editing
I did play with the colour settings like saturation and contrast.In my camera bag
Just my trusty smart phone.Feedback
Yep, don't get stung photographing bees.
