Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in Escondido CA , at Daley Ranch hiking trails.

Time

This was taken around golden hour while hiking on the trails near by, I noticed this little bee buzzing around and waited for it to land I'm glad it wasn't too windy that day.

Lighting

The sunlight was perfect for this shot, I love the ligt at golden hour.

Equipment

This was shot with my old LG Cellphone and a macro lense clip-on adaptor, nothing fancy or expensive.

Inspiration

The sun light at Golden hour lit the bee up beautifully, all I had on me that day was my cellphone and macro clips it was a picture I couldn't pass up and glad I didn't I was surprised with the results from very inexpensive equipment.

Editing

There was no post work done just some cropping, this was a very simple shot anybody could take just gotta Bee there.

In my camera bag

Usually while out hiking I might not be planning on taking any pictures, but I fill my bag with my Nikon D3100, Nikon D200, DJI Spark, Nikon f1.8 50mm, Nikon 55-300mm,Nikon 18-55mm lense and my cellphone lenses clip adptors, I probably only need 1 camera but like to bring 2 with me. One for backup or if my girlfriend is with me she can have one to use as well.

Feedback

Use what you have with you and you'd be surprised with the results, all I had was my cellphone and macro clip adptor wich came in a kit of 3 other adptors for about 20.00. The time of day was just rite becareful you wouldn't want to get stung.
