Behind The Lens

Location

the photo whas taken in a garden of a psychiatric hospital in Grimbergen (belgium)

Time

i was there to visit someone i knew and she had a dificult time to go trough, we walked the garden fore somewhat an houre and we finaly sat down in the gras next to the lavender bush looking at the butterflies. I cant remembe the right time, the photo whas taken in july 2015... but it is one of my favorites.

Lighting

it was day time and there whas no specific wheather, just a beautiful day.

Equipment

this shot was taken whith an Nikon D3000 and a tamron AF 70-300 and no other equipment whas needed.

Inspiration

My friend and i where just admireing the butterflies and i whas stil experimenting whith the camera. i guess i was lucky with the shot.

Editing

no this is a clean picture

In my camera bag

not mutch my camera, the af 18-55 lens and the tamron tele-macro lens

Feedback

a lot of patience and always have the camera whitin grasp. And enjoy the nature whitout ruining it, it is beautifull and if natures gone you won't be able to take the shot you are hoping for. Try to take the picture from the level of the object or animal you wish to capture and use some intuitition. it works fot me.
