Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in my garden. It's the first time I planted African Daisies. The lady bug was a bonus!

Time

I took this photo in the middle of the afternoon on a walk through the garden.

Lighting

I didn't use any special lighting. Just the way the sun was shining was perfect for this shot.

Equipment

Believe it or not, I had recently gotten a new cell phone number hat was supposed to have a brilliant camera. So I tried it out on this shot. It's taken with a Google Pixel 2xl.

Inspiration

I had never planted African Daisies before and was taken by their color and beauty. The lady bug jumped on at the last second. She was a bonus to the shot.

Editing

No post processing at all. No filters necessary.

In my camera bag

I have a beautiful Cannon 35 mm I carry, but I didn't use it for this shot. Instead, trying the new cell phone camera.

Feedback

I like to take photos of things I like. Flowers are one of my favorite. The closer to the flower the better I say. The flower or object you are shooting doesn't always have to be in the center of you lens. Make something else your focal point and the beauty of the object will come through.
