The photo was made in my backyard... right after the rain.Time
Exif says, Date/Time Original: 10-Apr-22 10:56:35Lighting
Here are the elements used: Shutter Speed 1/30 sec, f/2.8, ISO 110, 0.00 eV, Metering Mode: Center weighted average, Flash Off; Did not fire, Focal Length: 4.3 mm. That's all...Equipment
NIKON COOLPIX P900 was the camera, there was no other equipment used...Inspiration
It was surprising that the snail moved relatively faster than one would expect. And then, it was in my way... so I had to remove him, but first I took some photos. When I put it on a place that was safer, it continued on his way. Inspiration? I'd say it was a normal reaction... :)Editing
The photo was cropped a bit, nothing else needed be done.In my camera bag
For decades already I find it easier to carry a photo vest than any photo bag. It is more than enough to take along whatever I want or need for my photo session, walk or trip. My photo bags usually stay home or in the car, to keep the equipment I'm not using at the moment. My tripod has its permanent place in the car. The vest pockets usually contain two cameras. One of those is always waterproof. Sometimes I'll add a small action camera, mainly for its wide field of view and resistance to water and weather. Other pockets keep the spare batteries, ND and CPL filters, and one small camera clamp which can be fixed to almost anything. In many cases this can replace a tripod. The vest has deep pockets for longer lenses, and these usually hold a small water bottle, a sandwich, or a bar of chocolate - if I plan on being out for the whole day. I always pack about three meters length of paracord or similar strong, thin rope, one hefty pocket knife, and a lighter. Much can be improvised with these if need be. Recently I made it even easier, and take the essentials along in a waist pouch; one variable-volume McKinley. In the Outdoors, simplicity and comfort are my most important aspects!Feedback
The usual. Have a camera at hand, look around, find things... Nothing to it, if you are a photographer. And have fun!
