Behind The Lens

Location

At my home while sitting in a recliner chair knitting a sweater. My cat likes to lay on my lap. So I had to accommodate both the cat and the knitting. My Samsung Galaxy S7 cell phone was close by so I snapped this photo. I loved the color combination of orange and turquoise.

Time

Evening around 9pm

Lighting

Quiozel lamp light above my left shoulder.

Equipment

Samsung Galaxy S7 cell phone.

Inspiration

Color combination and a cooperative cat.

Editing

No post processing.

In my camera bag

Canon Rebel T6 with wide angle, telephoto, portrait and outside I have a 500mm.
