Behind The Lens

Location

Sibiu, Romania

Time

Somewhere about 11:00 AM, it's a little bit funny, since it was 11-11-2011

Lighting

It was a cloudy day, the natural light was perfect.

Equipment

Canon EOS 50D + EF 50mm F/1.8 II

Inspiration

This was actually what you call a "lucky shot". I was out with my friend and wanted to try his lenses (which later I even bought). So here it was, this half-dead leaf hanging from this tree right above my eyes. It was very cold and cloudy, great weather to photograph nature. I only took one shot, which I never do. So, this was definitely a right time and right place shot.

Editing

I didn't do much post-processing with this one; just played a little with the temperature, curves and contrast.

In my camera bag

I always have my Canon EOS 50D with me, most of the time with the 18-135mm IS USM lenses. Sometimes I also carry the EF 50mm F/1.8 II lenses and some macro rings in my bag.

Feedback

Timing and patience are the most important things in capturing nature.
