Behind The Lens

Location

This is taken in my hometown Kolkata. My mom planted this one in our garden. I was waiting for it to bloom and on top of that, it rained that day. So it was a perfect moment.

Time

It was a very cloudy day and raining little. I just waited till the rain stopped. I could remember clearly it was around 3 pm in the afternoon and just then we were about to take our afternoon nap, suddenly I noticed from my window the beautiful view. I hurriedly took my camera and went to capture this magnificent flower. I was very happy that I skipped my nap and took around 2 hrs to perfect the shot.

Lighting

Since it was cloudy, the lighting was even and not very harsh or directional.

Equipment

I used Sony A7RIII with Lensbaby 56mm and it was handheld in natural light.

Inspiration

I have been taking lots of flower pictures, but I have a major fascination with water droplets pictures. The rain made my dream come true. It made the process natural and spontaneous. It really compelled me to take this awesome picture.

Editing

yes, I only increased the clarity in lightroom and played with the shadow slider.

In my camera bag

I have my mirrorless camera Canon R5 with a 100mm F2.8 macro lens. The best go-to lens for everything.

Feedback

Just keep looking for views in unnoticeable places. You may discover something new.
