Behind The Lens

Location

In my garden.

Time

In the afternoon

Lighting

Natural light on a lovely sunny afternoon. So I could use a low ISO.

Equipment

Canon 7d with a Canon 100mm 2.8L Macro Lens. No flash was needed. It was hand held.

Inspiration

I love wildlife and maco photography. I was out in the garden all day taking photos of anything and everything that moved, or didnt move. I love to capture what you dont see. See the hidden lives of these beautful little creatures.

Editing

Just cropped and touched up the contrast/brightness and added a little sharpening. I dont process my photos much.

In my camera bag

Now I have a Canon 7d mk2, but still use the same lens. I have a tripod and monopod, but dont use them. You cant with macro photography when everything is moving around.

Feedback

Take your time, watch and listen. Dont get too close either or you will only get part of the shot in focus. And above all enjoy it and take the time to take your eye from the lens and watch.
