Behind The Lens

Location

I took this in my home diy studio

Time

this was taken in the early am

Lighting

I used a canon 630ex rt flash set 1/128 power and a small soft box , 1/160 sec, f/11, ISO 800

Equipment

canon 5d mark iv , canon 100mm f2.8 macro , canon 630ex-rt flash, amazon fire tablet for reflection, vanguard tripod, with vanguard gh-300t Pistol Grip Ball head,canon st-e3-rt

Inspiration

while in lock down I wanted to take a photo of this flower with refection that was unique in interesting with a hope that by viewing it people would have their thoughts taken off what was going on even if it was just for a moment or two

Editing

adjusted the highlights -50, blacks +25' texture +50. clarity +30, dehaze +20 , vibrance +20

In my camera bag

canon 5d mark iv, canon 80d, sigma 150-600mm , canon 24-70mm f2.8, canon 100mm macro f2.8, canon 630ex-rt, canon st-e3-rt

Feedback

set camera so that so that when take pic it is black then use flash, or flashlight to light up flower and show reflection. Move light around as well as camera to get best results . As this my first time this it took quite a few shots to get it the way I liked it. So take many shots
