Location
The Halifax Public Gardens is buzzing with activity every summer.Time
The late afternoon is a great time to go bee watching. The flowers are alive with activity!Lighting
Natural light at the right time of day is all one needs for the right exposure.Equipment
The Olympus EM1 and 12mm to 40mm camera is light and very capable.Inspiration
Nature is all around us but rarely examined due to the nature of our modern society. We rush from place to place and can't see what is in front of us. I like to take the time and focus on the obvious but unseen.Editing
None.In my camera bag
I use a variety of cameras in my weekly sojourns. I favour the Olympus EM5 mark 2 and EM1 with the 12mm to 40mm F/2.8 lens. On other days I will break out the Canon RP and 24mm to 105mm F/4 full frame mirrorless. Both provide excellent images and are easy to use. When I am really in the mood for a challenge I break out the Olympus OM20 35mm film camera and the 50mm F/1.8.Feedback
Breathe, just breathe...
