Behind The Lens

Location

I took this image out in a cut wheat field. There were dragonflies everywhere and this little guy just sat there and posed for me.

Time

I took this image about 11:00 am in the morning.

Lighting

All the lighting is natural light.

Equipment

I took this image with my iPhone 11 hand held.

Inspiration

I love dragonflies and my wife also loves dragonflies. She has a collection of images I have taken, so anytime I get a chance to see one I try and capture it. One of the reasons I love them is because their favorite food is mosquitos!

Editing

I did a few simple post-processing with an app on my phone called SnapSeed. I use this to correct colors and sharpen the details.

In my camera bag

Well I always have my iPhone with me but in my camera bag I have a Canon EOS R, Canon 5D MII, 100mm macro f2.8, 50mm f1.4, 24-70mm f2.8 and a 70-200mm f2.8

Feedback

If something captures your eye take the image. It does not matter what kind a camera you use as long as you have a camera with you at all times. I often get asked what is the best camera and I always tell them the one you have with you. Before cell phone cameras became so good I always carried a point and shoot with me.
