Location
This photo was taken at a local store, where they sell small plants and flowers so you can bring back them home and grew them yourself.Time
The timing was nothing very special, it was end of morning, or beginning of the afternoon, not especially the best timing to take pictures. Because the light is so harsh, hard and strong.Lighting

The equipment I used was very simple, a panasonic lumix GX7, no other equipments were required to take this picture.Inspiration
I just saw this little frog on one of the plant so I shooted it. Maybe it was the color, a green frog on a pink/red flower although I edited it in black and white afterwards as I do prefer pictures like this.Editing
So I post processed it to make it black and white, nothing special, I used a preset that turn the picture into black and white, a regular preset, with no fancy contrast or sharpness effect.In my camera bag
Currently I am using a Ricoh GR2 with a Ricoh flash. And most of the time I shoot film with a medium format, Pentax 67. I have 2 spare batteries for the ricoh and 2x4 batteries for the flash. For films, I usually bring 3 additionnal roll of films. Currently for films I use Kodak tmax 400 or Ilford HP5 400.Feedback
Just observe the mundane around you, it is actually very beautiful and you can have some small scenes like these but it means also that you need to bring your gear every time you go somewhere with you as you just don't know, anything can happen at any time!
