Behind The Lens

Location

This was taken on the seafront in Exmouth, Devon, England. This is where I live.

Time

This was taken about 10 in the morning.

Lighting

As you can see it was a bright clear day with brilliant blue skies.

Equipment

This was taken on one of my old camera's, a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ150

Inspiration

This was a raised flower bed filled with wild flowers & some of the cosmos flowers had grown taller than the others which made them stand out against the beautiful clear blue sky.

Editing

I little bit of cropping was all the post processing needed here.

In my camera bag

I am such a lazy photographer & only ever carry my camera.

Feedback

Check things out from lower angles. Sometimes you can see a better image from getting low down. I got this image from below the flower head which gave me the clear background.
