Location
I took this photo while walking around on the streets of LA, California.Time
I was on a lunch break and was just walking around with a coworker. Couldn't help noticing this flower on the sidewalk, all bright, contrasting the green bushes.Lighting
It was noon, somewhere around 12:30 pm, and it was a sunny day. The sunlight alone was making the flower's colors pop out and worth noticing. The picture came out pretty crisp.Equipment
I am a big Samsung phone fan, mostly because of it's camera. In times like these, when I don't have my DSLR, my phone comes in really handy for a quick stop and shoot.Inspiration
Nature always inspire me. Colors, flowers, bugs, mountains, sky.... just anything.Editing
None what so ever... this picture is un-edited.In my camera bag
When I have my bag with me, I have my Nikon D5200, with a 55-300 mm Zoom lens, and maybe one more - could be either a 35 mm portrait lens or a 85 mm macro lens. Other than that, I always have my phone, Galaxy S6 Edge+ or S7 Edge.Feedback
There is diversity everywhere, be ready to embrace it at any time. I like shooting sunrises and sunsets a lot, but it's the afternoon, when there is ample natural light and colors around you seem to come out the best. In case you come across anything that catches your eye, a little preparation would go a long way.
