Behind The Lens

Location
I captured this photo in my garden in a small village called Bispgården
Time
It was 2017-09-12 15:27:03.006. The september sun is getting lower and a little warmer then the summer.
Lighting
It is mainly ambient light. To have a little more backlight I use a warm flash from behind low from the ground.
Equipment
Nikon D810 sigma 150-600 flash tripod and reflector
Inspiration
I love mushrooms and backlight. Almost all my photos are shot backlight. The su is always turning around behind the subject. That is why I can shoot the whole day even during bright sun
Editing
Yes I did a little orton, put out highlights. A little vignette
In my camera bag
battery, rain case for camerabag, remote, cleaning gear and tripod
Feedback
I stage most of my photos in this case I make a scene and drill the mushrooms with pins on a board. Hang food in the air and in the mushroom it self. I love to hang branches in the air to have something for squirrels to climb in and for framing.
