Behind The Lens

Location

My own garden as from time to time my ex-wife planted flowers to grow and one year this appeared, the petals to me was just right, until Viewbug an opportunity arose to display this picture.

Time

In the shade it was a wet day the day before and the light again seem just right.

Lighting

I try not to direct light as then to defuse the colours. Using the opportunity of the place and time of the day.

Equipment

Canon EDS Rebel Digital my first Digital as my old Canon EOS was becoming obsolete due to being a film camera.

Inspiration

Natural beauty caught my eye.

Editing

In this case the Viewbug contest asked for B/W flower picture, so used various filters, this one I enjoyed using.

In my camera bag

Today anything that helps me as with a disability, it is the steady of the camera that is important, also using sticks like a monopod helps.

Feedback

Trust your instincts, do what you are comfortable with, experiment but realise in a thousand pictures, one might be pretty good.
