Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo in my front yard in late spring this year.

Time

I took this picture in the morning. He rarely stands still so I was very happy to get a good capture of him. I didn't realize why he was standing still until I uploaded the image to my computer. He really is fun to watch, he stalks everything.

Lighting

The lighting was very pretty. The sun was not fully in the sky yet.

Equipment

I used a Canon M100 with a 55-200mm lens. My absolute favorite lens for the camera. It's very bright. Anyone who has a M series Canon camera, this lens is a must. I also used a tripod.

Inspiration

I love watching my dogs. I make time before and after work to spend time with them outside. I like how childlike they are sometimes. It's fun to see them just be. We could learn a lot from them.

Editing

I cropped the picture so you could see the bug.

In my camera bag

I have a Pentax K-70 in my bag. I also have a ND filter and a polarizing filter. I have a 35mm 2.8 macro, a 50mm 1.7 vintage manual and the kit lens that came with the camera. I still have the Canon and I was going to sell it along with the lenses. But, I haven't been able to part with it yet. I live in Vermont and the climate is harsh. Unfortunately, the Canon is not rated for low temperatures and does not offer weather sealed lenses. I must say that the camera takes very nice pictures though.

Feedback

Always have your camera ready. Rarely does my dog stand still long enough for me to focus and take a decent picture. You have to be ready when the opportunity comes along.
