Behind The Lens
Location
This photo was taken at Marble Mountain in Vietnam in November 2017.Time
This was taken at around 2.30pm.Lighting
Nothing exceptional about the lighting however I do remember there was not much sun as we were having a short break from the torrential rain.Equipment
The camera I used was a Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ80 without a flash.Inspiration
I was having a lot of difficulty walking up and down all the stairs at Marble Mountain due to arthritic issues so I found a spot to wait for my husband.. while he explored I found these beautiful water lillies to photograph.Editing
Yes I have done a little post processing...this image has been cropped, sharpened,adjusted the contrast and bloom applied to the centre to make it a little brighter.In my camera bag
I do not carry a lot of equipment...really only my camera, spare battery, mini tripod and a cloth to clean the lens.Feedback
Water drops can enhance this type of photo and I was fortunate that it had been raining...I also use the self timer when taking close up photos to try and reduce blur.
