Behind The Lens

Location

I was blessed to take this photo several years ago, on a summer's day at the Chicago Botanical Gardens

Time

I think it was in the afternoon

Lighting

I liked the way the tiny hairs on the plant stem were lit up, and also, the way the rain drops were aluminated.

Equipment

Canon EOS Rebel, T5

Inspiration

Trying to capture a butterfly as it lit on the flower

Editing

None

In my camera bag

I have the standard lens and the zoom lens, but, nothing special, just what came with the camera.

Feedback

Go with your inspiration, take lots of photos, one is bound to be just what you wanted it to be.
