Behind The Lens

Location

This was taken on the Chatfield school campus in Lapeer, MI. It was in a bush that was tangled into a chainlink fence near the railroad tracks.

Time

I believe it was captured in the early afternoon.

Lighting

Strictly natural lighting. The light was bright but overcast.

Equipment

I used only my LG V10 for the picture. That's quite a departure for me, as I'm a great fan of using a DSLR.

Inspiration

The surrounding environment was very dull and almost monochrome. The eggs stood out in stark contrast from ten feet away.

Editing

Nothing too ambitious as far as post-processing, just some simple adjustments in Lightroom.

In my camera bag

I don't have much equipment. Just a Canon T6i, 18-55 kit lens and a 55-250 STM.

Feedback

While I had good luck with my phone, I would probably recommend some sort of macro lens for best results.
