Behind The Lens

Location

The photo was actually taken in my local Wal-Mart,I was shopping for flowers for my mom when I came across these and had to take a picture.

Time

If I remember correctly it was maybe in the afternoon, around possibly 5pm or so as the sun was slowly setting.

Lighting

The florescent lights of the store I believe kind of put a small light onto these as I took the photo? I was blocking most of the light so it made it seem darker than normal and casted the more purple colors to stand out more than the whites which is what I wanted to do originally.

Equipment

I Don't have enough money for expensive cameras and nice equipment,I usually use my phone and try to get the right lighting to hit for the camera lense on my phone.

Inspiration

I love flowers,before I lost my dad I was so intrigued by the beauty of flowers but also the way some die gracefully, I guess when I saw these flowers the purple color stood out and the pattern came out.

Editing

I don't know as I kind of just go with the flow? It pretty difficult to try and get the right angles to take a flower picture or any picture at all, as I'm pretty picky about alot of things.

In my camera bag

Well since I dont have a very expensive and nice camera I usually carry around an extra light for flower photos,lense cleaner for my phone lenses, and blackout cards in case I want to blackout some parts in the picture.

Feedback

Hm,when you go to capture a picture of flowers try to angle the camera to where it'll make the picture pop when it turns out, also experiment with lighting as it will come a very long way in the long run.
