Location
I took this photo in my backyard. I live in Santa Cruz CA. In the Santa Cruz mountains. It's a beautiful place with almost perfect weather.Time
I captured this photo in the early afternoon. When I was taking a break from my homework.Lighting
The bright afternoon sun cast the perfect shadows to give this photo a moody feeling.Equipment
I used my Nikon d3200 with its original lense and low f-stop. The low f-stop made the background the perfect amount of unfocused.Inspiration
I wanted to capture the softness of the dandelion and its perfect shape.Editing
I changed the image to black and white because I felt that it gave the image the extra pop I was looking for.In my camera bag
I always have my trusty Nikon d3200 and its original lense. I carry a zoom lense with me at all times. Despite the heavy bag and my aching shoulders the pain is always worth the picture.Feedback
Don't be afraid the lie down of the ground or position yourself in a strange way. Get creative and try to show people how you see the world.
