Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in a patch of beautiful wildflowers in our backyard!

Time

This was taken about 4:00

Lighting

It was a cloudy day so the lighting was soft.

Equipment

My Nikon D3300.

Inspiration

I have just begun my photography journey, ( just received my camera for Christmas from my husband!) and saw the small patch of flowers. I had 2 of my children come out for me to practice with. My daughter is such a good sister. I didn't pose this picture at all, just told them to sit and play with the flowers!

Editing

Only thing I did was cropping and changing to Black and White.

In my camera bag

Just my camera and a couple of lenses. That's all you really need. :)

Feedback

Capture children in their natural activities. You can see their true emotions and expressions versus fake smiles and annoying posing!
