This picture of a tiny cactus flower was taken at home office.Time
AfternoonLighting
It was pictured in the natural light through the office window.Equipment
Nikon 5100, 18-55mm lens with10X macro attachment lens.Inspiration
The flower in the pot at the home office desk looked very pretty. My wife wanted me to take a picture of it. But with regular lens it was hard to see the picture of the actual flower. So I had to resort to the macro lens, nothing fancy though.Editing
Highlights, Shadows and Brightness were increased a little to bring out the flower details. No flash at all.In my camera bag
Nikon D5100 Camera, Lenses 18-55mm; 55-200mm, macro lenses, ND filter, Circular Polarizer, couple extra batteries, extra memory cardsFeedback
Trying out various backgrounds sometime can help bring out the oomph in the picture. So don't be shy to try out non-traditional approach some time.
