What Type of Camera and/or Lenses Did You Use?

Panasonic Lumix

What Was the Weather Like? What Was the Lighting Like?

It was a lovely sunny afternoon in California, Napa, at my friends' winery. I needed someone to hold the ball for me. Using flash would not work because of the reflection. I did not even have my big camera; basically, you don't need an expensive, big camera and lens to get what you want. Just think out of the box.

Advice

  • I am very happy with the result. I had my little camera with me. It helps handing the ball to someone else, so you can get the whole thing.

If You Remember, What Were the Camera's Settings?

Thinking out of the box ... Shutter 1300, aperture 3.5

What Type of Planning Was Needed to Set Up This Photo?

All I needed was my magic ball ...
