Location
The photo was taken in aisle behind my house. Every year a lot of poppies appear here which makes the normal very boring aisle into a colourful flora. Perfect time for a flower shootTime
The photo is taken en may in the mornig at 10:00AMLighting
This photo is from a set where our village is promoted with shots about anything in the village that makes the village special. I decided to start taking pictures from coming thing we daily pass, like aisle to enter the house from the back. There I found beautiful flora in aisles, which I captured to show how nice our aisles in fact are.Equipment
I worked with my D850 and the Nikon 105mm f1.4 @ f1.4 handheld.Inspiration
The photo inspired me because the flora in the aisle draw my attention. I fact I just wanted to shot the daily pass-through the aisles, but the flora in the aisle draw my attention because the aisle was turned in a beautiful flora, even more colourful than my own garden. That was the moment I also started to isolated the poppy a bit more, but still having the wall in the back showing we are still in the aisle.Editing
I did some slight post processing using Nikon captures NX-D (Raw processig) -&bt; Affinty Photo (Raw corrections) and Skylumn Luminar 4 for AI accent enhancementIn my camera bag
For this shot I had nothing else in my bag. I had the intention to find and shoot pictures fitting to the 105mm tele with fore- and background separation.Feedback
Try to get a theme before you went out. Within a theme you will find so many things to shoot. Once more than other else, but it opens your creativity. Also take one lens and go out. You'll see that you will leave shots which do not fit. Due to this, you are more focused to that what you prepared and the shots are much more close to your original intention and to what you expected you would shoot.
