Behind The Lens
Location
This was taken in my girlfriends front garden in lowestoft suffolkTime
It was about 11 am. I was waiting for my partner to get ready as we were going out to to relieve the boredom I popped out to the front garden with my cameraLighting
This was just pure natural light. Nothing added nothing taken awayEquipment
Canon 70d and canon 100mm f2.8L macro lensInspiration
I had only just bought this dedicated macro lens a few days before but hadn't had the chance to use it so while my partner was getting ready I took the opportunity to try it outEditing
Absolutely no post processing though I may have just cropped it slightlyIn my camera bag
Canon 70d Canon 28 - 105mm f4L Canon 70 - 200mm f4L Canon 100mm f2.8L Canon 10 - 18mm Canon 1.4 extender Speedlite 550ez Ring flash Loads of filters Couple of reflectors Home made camera bean bagFeedback
I was lucky with the light and weather but normally I would use a reflector to either bounce some light back in or even use the reflector as a wind break if it was windy. The slightest wind will disturb a dandelion.
