My own version, nowadays mainly used to sharpen screens, fine print, bills, and forgotten camera menus! :)

The photo was made at home, with cheap set of reading glasses set on the Dell laptop cover (RIP) ;)Time
The Date/Time of the original was 31-Jul-2015 @ 15:31:30Lighting
The elements used were as follows: 1/125 sec, f/5.3, ISO 100, 0.00 eV, Metering Mode Pattern, Flash Off, Focal Length 39.4mm, White Balance set to Auto.Equipment
The camera was a NIKON COOLPIX P610, one dependable superzoom, capable of closeup and macro photos thru telephotos. Now owned by my nephews... :)Inspiration
There was this nice colored reflection off the laptop cover, so I just needed something to put on it to create an interesting scene.Editing
Not much, but I cant remember all the corrections applied... :)In my camera bag
For decades already I find it easier to carry a photo vest than any photo bag. It is more than enough to take along whatever I want or need for my photo session, walk or trip. My photo bags usually stay home or in the car, to keep the equipment I'm not using at the moment. The tripod has its permanent place in the car. My vest pockets usually contain two cameras. Regardless of which is the "main" camera, one of those is always some waterproof model, if the weather plays up or when I find something interesting in the shallows. Nowadays I usually use Nikon P900 or Sony RX100m7, and the waterproof backup is an Olympus TG-2 or a Paralenz DiveCam. Other vest pockets keep the spare batteries, ND and CPL filters, and one small camera clamp which can be fixed to almost anything. In many cases this can replace a tripod. The vest has deep pockets for longer lenses, and these usually hold a small water bottle, a sandwich, or a bar of chocolate - if I plan on being out for the whole day. I always pack about three meters length of paracord or similar strong, thin rope, one hefty pocket knife, and a lighter. Much can be improvised with these if need be. Recently I made it even easier, and take the essentials along in a waist pouch; one variable-volume McKinley. In the Outdoors, simplicity and comfort are my most important requirements!Feedback
Combine unusual things... Sometimes you can arrive at interesting scenes. Above all, be curious! :)
