Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken at a county park which overlooks the Susquehanna river in Lancaster County Pennsylvania.

Time

It was around 1PM when I took this photo. My friend discovered it and encouraged me to try a close up shot. I am not a big fan of spiders but decided to do it anyway.

Lighting

Nothing to share about lighting as this was taken with the natural light available.

Equipment

The camera I used was a Nikon Coolpix S3600. It was handheld and I tried to get the exposure somewhat acceptable. As this is a simple point and shoot device my options were limited and I was a very novice photographer at the time.

Inspiration

As I previously mentioned, I am not a fan of spiders but my friend encouraged me to try the shot so I did.

Editing

Mostly just to adjust the exposure. As with photography I am trying to learn more about post processing too.

In my camera bag

At the time this photo was taken I just carried my camera in a small case. I have since upgraded and now have a different camera, a tripod and some accessories such extra batteries, etc.

Feedback

Still a novice I can only say keep trying and learn your equipment and research what others are doing who have much more experience.
