Behind The Lens
Location
This photo was taken in our front yard which is a landscape of rugged beauty due to the hard work and efforts of my husband.Time
It was late afternoon, with a mixture of clouds and sun. Perfect light without harsh glare.Lighting
The area where these flowers are located have a combination of shade with filtered light. I believe that combination of light and shade allowed the true colors to shine through.Equipment
My camera is a Nikon D5000. I used a Tamron SP macro 90 mm lens. It was the first shot I had taken wiith this lens.Inspiration
The flowers are so unique in color and detail.Editing
Minimal. I use the adjustments to fine tune and make the image a tad bit sharper with slightly more contrast and color.In my camera bag
My Nikon D5000, a Tamron macro lens, and my work horse 16 to 300 mm lens. I always pack an extra battery and Scan disk card as well as a few filters. A cleaning solution and cloth is essential. Since I live in the Pacific NW a rain cover has been a life saver.Feedback
With macro photography and photography in general, I try to use different settings and try various angles to capture the perfect image.
