Behind The Lens

Location

The photo was taken in Roma Street Parkland Brisbane, Australia. I am not a professional photographer but I like very much to take beautiful pictures including flowers. I pretty sure that people will like this picture very much.

Time

I like this picture a lot because the color combination between flower, stamens and pistils is so great. The stamens and pistils are very clear. I had a very great time to walked around the parkland which is very beautiful view and had an unforgettable opportunity to see the wonderful flower. This picture was taken on 3 January 2011 at 06.44

Lighting

It was in summer when I went to the parkland. Even though, the light from the sun was so beautiful, the flower was slightly shaded by big trees. Therefore, to get the clear picture, lighting from the camera was needed.

Equipment

This was shot on a Sony DSC-W55, with the F-stop of f/5.2, the exposure time of 1/800 sec, the ISO-speed of ISO-100, the exposure bias of 0, the focal length of 19 mm, the maximum aperture of 3, the memory m,ode of pattern, the flash mode of flash, compulsory, red eye, strobe return. Contrast, exposure program, saturation and sharpness were normal, while white balance was auto. The picture was taken without using a tripod.

Inspiration

My friends and I went for holiday to Brisbane. We flied from Newcastle, one suburb of New South Wales, Australia. We stayed near the parkland. In the morning, we went to the parkland. The view was so nice and when we look around, we found the such a beautiful flower. This was the first time for me to see it that inspired me a lot about how great our Creator to make something that it's so wonderful.

Editing

I know that post-processing is sometimes required to get a better landscape photo. However, in this case, I did not do any post-processing because the capture has already created the beautiful composition.

In my camera bag

The important thing that always be in my bag is my camera with several modes. It is sometimes important for me to bring a laptop if there is an event that need more memory for photos that can not be met by the memory of camera. Therefore, I could transfer photos from the camera to the laptop. In addition, I will always bring a Samsung mobile phone that has a good camera that can be used to capture any good views.

Feedback

I think every one can capture something similar to this photo. we just need to be sure that the light is enough for getting the wonderful picture.
