Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken while on holiday at a resort called Dikilolo, in Brits, South Africa.

Time

Taken at 16h00

Lighting

Because of the time of the day the natural lighting was perfect and I used optimal exposure to capture the deep bright colors. iso 100, Fstop f/9, max aperture 4.9

Equipment

Taken with a Nikon D7000 no tripod and precariously balanced on a wall millimeter away from this beautiful speciman. The lens used was a standard 18-55mm Nilon kit lens.

Inspiration

I love macro-photography and was on the look out specifically for spiders of that region.

Editing

The only post - processing done was cropping.

In my camera bag

Flash, Close up filters, Tripod and my two lenses.

Feedback

Always take your camera on holiday set aside a day or a few hours just for photography. Research the animal and plant life of the area you are going to visit.
