Behind The Lens

Location

The photo was taken in Canary Islands, in Tenerife. In the forest.

Time

The photo was taken around noon. But it is special, because, when walking in the forest, the shade of the trees was severe, and this midge was perched on the flower in a ray of light in the shadows. It's especially fun for me, because they remind me of a sunlit Kung fu warrior in the shadows.

Lighting

The photo was taken in a very dark area, but the midge is perched on the only sunlit flower.

Equipment

I used a canon eos 77d with tamron 70-300 lens.

Inspiration

The image in front of me was my only inspiration. I walked through the forest and saw the midge.

Editing

Yes, the poor state of the light needed some manipulation on the shadows.

In my camera bag

I usually have my canon 77D and four lenses, a 50mm canon, a 10-18mm canon for landscapes, a 70-300mm tamron for macro and distance photography, and the typical 18-55mm.

Feedback

Always be prepared, any moment can provide a good photo.
