Behind The Lens

Location

This shot was taken during a family visit to Dublin Zoo.

Time

early afternoon

Lighting

This would have been taken in strong sunlight, overhead so no harsh shadows.

Equipment

Handheld using a Samsung NX1000 and 55 - 200 zoom lens. ISO200 shutter 1/80 focal length 30/1

Inspiration

The flower was attracting many bees, if you look closely there are 4 in the frame.

Editing

All processing done in camera. No special techniques. Background blur was natural from zoom.

In my camera bag

Nx1000 28-50 kit lens 50-200 III OIS zoom Various microsd cards Various ND filters Lenses have UV filters on (unbranded)

Feedback

was an opportunistic snap, minimal set up. Waited for minimal bee count.
