Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was along the fence line to my property.

Time

It was taken in the early afternoon hours.

Lighting

This was all natural sun lighting.

Equipment

NIKON COOLPIX S3600 F-STOP: F/3.7 EXPOSURE TIME: 1/100 SEC ISO SPEED: ISO - 80 EXPOSURE BIAS: O STEP FOCAL LENGTH: 4 MM MAX APERTURE: 3.8 METERING MODE: UNKOWN NO OTHER EQUIPMENT WAS USED. I DID THE BEST I COULD BY HOLDING THE CAMEREA STEADY. ACTUALLY, OTHER THAN THE OCCASIONAL FLASH THIS IS HOW I TOOK MOST OF MY PHOTOS.

Inspiration

THE PLANT WAS ROOTED ON THE GRASSY SIDE OF FENCE AND GREW THE CHAIN LINK. AT THE TIME THE PHOTO WAS TAKEN THIS WAS THE ONLY FLOWER IN BLOOM.

Editing

I CROPPED THE PHOTO TO ENLARGE THE BLOOM AND USED BASIC YELLOW FILTER FROM VERY BASIC EDITIIMG TOOLS. I AM VERY MUCH THE AMATUER PHOTO BUG AND I AM VISUALLY IMPAIRED SO IT IS TAKING ME AWHILE TO LEARN MY WAS AROUND THE ART. I THINK I ALSO USEDTHE SELECTIVE FOCUS TOOL TO BRING OUT THE SEED PART OF THE FLOWER.

In my camera bag

JUST MY CAMERA AND AN EXTRA STORAGE DISK.

Feedback

BE PATIENT. HAVE STEADY OR USE A TRI-POD. GET CLOSE TO THE SUBJECT.
