Behind The Lens

Location

My parents' backyard where there were a row of Day lilies. This was a long time ago around the year 2000; The printed color copy is even more striking, but this capture is one of my favorite film photos.

Time

Late afternoon.

Lighting

I believe the sun was behind me.

Equipment

Nikon N55 35mm film camera.

Inspiration

I have been taking 35mm film photos since 1978 with various models and lenses. I found that film photos which have more pixels capture the subject well. I love Day lilies and positioned myself to get if frame in the view finder and shot several. This was my best.

Editing

Regular film processing stores; than put photos on CD's to put them on the computer.

In my camera bag

Camera, 2 lenses, flash. lens cleaners.

Feedback

If using a 35 mm film camera, it is always best to have the prints put on a CD to do later touch ups, etc. Many people are going back to 35 mm cameras because great effect and many more pixels that produce rich color in photos.
