Behind The Lens

Location

This was in my front yard at the edge of my garden. Woodstock Ohio.

Time

Early morning, an hour past dawn.

Lighting

It was just sunshine, partially back lit.

Equipment

Nikon P530. Set to macro

Inspiration

The way the light was shining through the bloom, it was radiant.

Editing

I use Lightroom classic, and corrected for lighting. Very little other editing.

In my camera bag

This is the camera I generally keep in my car ready at a moment's notice. My main kit is in a backpack, I have a Nikon D 3300, the two kit zooms, a Tamron macro and Tamron 70-300 mm zoom. A Flash, cables batteries chargers Etc.

Feedback

I wish I could say that I planned this thoroughly, but I did not. I look for things that capture my attention and try to present them the way my mind's eye sees them. Even in your own garden you can find interesting subjects.
