Hi reignebow, welcome to DPS!!............it's a Fuji Finepix S602Z Pro Zoom(difficult to find one nowadays)..............not a DSLR. Set to automatic and supermacro to be able to get really close. No additional lenses used. Thank you for the lovely feedback here and good luck with your own photography. DPS is a great place to learn from the experts............no such thing as a 'dumb question' here-ever.

Hi Jannu-Under the canal canopy the light is muted..........nicely shaded in fact and definitely 'soft'. Thank you for the feedback.

Moi, you've done it again with a wonderful selection to show us. I like the first one the most, however.
