Location
This was taken in a parking lot during the height of the Painted Lady butterfly migration. I just happened to have my camera with me.Time
This was taken at around 3:30 PM after my shift at the animal shelter at which I volunteer.Lighting
Natural light is my favorite, almost any time of the day.Equipment
This was shot with a NikonDS5100 with a 55 mm Nikkor lens. Nothing fancy except for the gorgeous butterfly.Inspiration
I was surrounded by these amazing butterflies and I couldn't seem to get enough shots of them. This lovely girl was by herself and was focused on the flower.Editing
Just a small amount of cropping.In my camera bag
Obviously, my cameras Nikon DS5100 and a Nikon DS5300, a bunch of lenses, lens cleaners, extra batteries, SD cards. Since I take dog pictures for an animal shelter, I always have dog treats and some squeakers to get dogs attention.Feedback
Just take keep your eyes open for any chance. You never know when Mother Nature is setting up something special for you.
