Behind The Lens

Location

In the countryside. In one of my favorite places that I frequent to do macro photography.

Time

I usually go out to do macro photography early in the morning. I never lengthen my days after the sun is high. Surely it would be before twelve noon.

Lighting

I like to work in direct light whenever I can. But sometimes due to technical demands such as a very small diaphragm to record depth of field (DOF)

Equipment

In this particular case, a Sony A77 camera together with a Tanrom 100mm 2.8. lens together with a Sony HVL-F43AM flash. Along with some extension tubes.

Inspiration

Nothing in particular. I just wanted to highlight this little jumping spider against the color of the flower, to create contrast and draw attention to the details. Looking through the viewfinder, it seemed like a good composition to me. But you had to act fast because the spider was moving very fast.

Editing

I don't usually process my photos too much. I usually work on basic adjustments like saturation, contrast, and a bit of focus. Of course, adjustment of the image according to the platform where it is directed, signature and/or watermark and frame.

In my camera bag

Normal, but apart from my Sony cameras, several macro lenses of different focal lengths Sony, Laowa, Meyer Optik, Helios, flashes, extension tubes, duplicators, achromatic lenses, tripods of various sizes, those of us who work a lot on macro photography by At the end we are getting a lot of accessories and elements, which help us create other atmospheres and give photography another dimension of quality.

Feedback

Of course. See lots of photos of people you admire. Social networks are full of magnificent sites and photographers. You learn a lot by observing and analyzing photographs. Of course, be constant when working and not despair until the results we are looking for appear, feeding self-criticism.
