Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo when I was on my way home from taking the kids to school. I was driving and saw these bushes off the side of the road by my mother-in-laws old house. I was recovering from pneumonia but I couldn't help myself. I laid myself down beside the bush and took a few shots with my phone. I just loved how the show covered the branches, weighing them down and giving them this amazing look.

Time

It was around 8:30 or so in the morning, I just took my children to school and was heading home when I just happened to notice the bushes off to my right. It had been snowing earlier and the ground and bushes were full of fluffy fresh snow.

Lighting

I just had the morning light, no special lighting from my phone, but I just felt it was right, exactly what I was hoping to share

Equipment

I had only my phone, however, I liked the image and the desire for taking photos grew within me and now i have a camera and am learning to use it so I can capture other moments better.

Inspiration

I was just driving home and thought to myself about how beautiful it is after a fresh snowfall, when the small patch of bushes appeared to my right and I thought I would give it a try and take a couple of shots and see how they turned out.

Editing

no post-processing

In my camera bag

I am learning to use a Sony digital SLR camera, but still use my phone and a point and shoot until I learn more

Feedback

Look at things from a different angle, beneath or above, not necessarily from eye level, How would it look if you were a bird, or a mouse. I am completely unqualified to recommend any lens or shutter speed so I would leave that to those more knowledgible than myself.
