Location

I took this photo in a gardens

Time

This was taken in the early am around 10 am, but this was taken inside a building

Lighting

I just used natural lighting, didnt need anymore lighting

Equipment

I used either a canon 60D or 80D. I do believe I used a tripod. The lens was EFS 18-135 mm.

Inspiration

I love taking photos of flowers, there is so much detail you capture with a camera that you sometimes don't see with the naked eye.

Editing

I do very little post processing, mostly just brightening the colors a little or cropping, or erasing photo bombs that you didn't know were there until later

In my camera bag

If I am going out for the day, I take everything, I always take 2 cameras, usually 3 lenses, extra batteries, extra cards, chargers, wipes for the lenses, lens caps, tripod, remote Apurture, I use that a lot especially with the macro lens, & a lens ball, which I'm just learning how to use. I'm sure I'm forgetting something.

Feedback

Practice is the first thing I would say, take pics of anything, take more than 1 pic of something, change the settings, you could get a few nice but different looks of the same item. Keep all of your pics and after months look back at your pics and you will see you're improvement. It was shocking when I looked back at some of mine, when I first started I thought I was taking good photos, yeah, not so much. It's a learning process. And practice is the best way to improve your photos. And take your camera off of auto mode. I myself still have a lot to learn.
