Behind The Lens

Location

i took it in the "negev" desert in Israel in the open wilderness

Time

in the noon, i usually take these shots in the middle of the day because of the large amount of light

Lighting

shooting in 1:1 and 2:1 macro requires large amounts of light, i usually shoot in natural conditions and prefer the noon when the light is most intense, this does tend to make hard shadows but it does not matter much in my macro shots.

Equipment

i always shoot with my Sony a7-III and a Laowa 100mm full manual lens, no tripod or flash was used.

Inspiration

I always look for something interesting to shoot, the macro world is the best deal for me, i can always find something to shoot anywhere if i look closely.

Editing

i corrected the color a little bit and deleted some dirt and cobweb that was in the way, also focus stacking of about 12 shots was used.

In my camera bag

I always have my camera in my everyday bag, Sony a7-III with a 55mm lens, also i usually take my Laowa 100mm which is a bit heavier but essential for my photography.

Feedback

always carry your camera with you, never know where and when a good capture will present itself, you can find and interesting capture anywhere and anytime.
