Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo in my garden in my back yard

Time

The time of day that this photo was taken was late afternoon. I sat for about an hour and waited and around 5:00 he landed on the flower so I took the shot.

Lighting

There was no special lighting, I was just hoping the sun was in the right position when I took the shot.

Equipment

I used a canon T7 2000D with a zoom lens ef 75-300 mm. No tripod and no flash.

Inspiration

I have always loved (and still do) to take pictures of wildlife, flowers and birds, so when the hummingbird landed on the flower it was perfect.

Editing

I did not use any post-processing. Just a little bit of editing after the picture was taken.

In my camera bag

I always have the lens I normally use which is the 75-300mm, I also carry my 18-55mm lens and I also carry my uv filters and sometimes a tripod

Feedback

All you have to to is be patient and wait for the perfect day for that perfect picture.
