Location

I took this photo at Longwood Gardens

Time

It was taken at 10:20 am

Lighting

I just used natural lighting which was the sun that day

Equipment

This was taken with an automatic camera which was a canon sureshot, I changed over to a regular camera sometime around that time. The camera was hand held

Inspiration

These flowers are one of my favorite, I take a lot of photos of hibiscus. There are a lot of varieties and colors. I just think they are beautiful

Editing

Yes, sometimes I do some post processing but not all the time, mostly lightening or cropping. I also take spots & blemishes off of my photos if necessary

In my camera bag

I have cameras, tripod, plenty of batteries, ND filters, polarizing filter, extra lens caps, cloths to clean lenses, chargers, lensball, remote for camera, extra camera cards

Feedback

Use different settings and figure out what works best for you, take a couple of pics, not just one. Practice, Practice, Practice
