The Hummingbird... Was given some info about a Anna's Humming Bird nest yesterday and was taken out there. Only wanted to spend about a hour there and ended up spending 3 hours.. Geez, where did the time go...
Well, here are a few shots I processed so far of the nest with mom sitting on two newly hatched chicks...
After getting bored shooting her just sitting there we waited around till she left and came back to feed the young in her care... Got a few of those shots.. If you look at the last images you can just see the beaks of the babies over the lip of the nest...
I cannot get back to the nest till April 8th and have a chance at some more shots of bigger chicks...
Enjoy
Tech
D2x
200-400
TC14E II
SB-800 EV -1.7 Better Beamer
ISO 250 and changed to 640 at the end of shooting..
Also shot some at F/8, but stopped down to F/13-F/22 for the greater depth of field in some of these shots...
Found a male up a tree and he flashed us... How rude of him you know.
Mom sitting in the nest
I know the branch through the head is not that great...

Photography isn't about the Zone System or any other Ansel Adams nonsense.
It's simply about seeing. You either see or you don't see, the rest is
academic.

How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
