Good morning Hive family and all the photographers lovers around the world, what I got here for you all today are some more shots of the Anna's hummingbirds and today we are just going to throw up on this post six shots due to the fact I have more shots to show and I just want to get through them all a lot quicker, so the more the better anyways is how I feel to do that. I have posted my favorite ones from this hummingbird session but I do have a few that are still real good and special to me to capture. With that being said, lets start off with the first shot, the cover shot above is one of those ones that would be in my favorites category. As it has been about two years now since getting back into photography and doing probably to much shooting for my body is feeling these effects of doing so, especially my feet but I will push through it all the best I can and all I know is I have about fifteen terabytes of RAW files to edit, so If I do go down for some time, I have a lot to do and a lot of shots to show for content. One of my really good photography buddies, always does what you see in the first shot, real slow shutter speed, get the head of the bird clean and the wings really moving in motion in the shot. I really haven't done it, it is a hard thing to do but even though I was shooting at 1/4000 for these hummingbirds I have done exactly what he does, so for me I really like this shot and a rare thing to get in good quality. This is the reason I made this one the cover shot, as for the next shot below another cool shot, up in the sky with awesome colors and details, with some really cool motion of the wings.
In this shot here another one I do really like here, the motion of the wings, the detail and I am obsessed with the background colors in all these shots I have posted. The background is actually a wood fence with some green you see is some plants, makes for some really cool shots.
Here in this shot something you don't get when it comes to hummingbirds, the beak opened up and in flight makes this such a cool image. This one as many here have some type of disease, as you can see the beak is really messed up and others do have these growths around them, I heard it is passable to others but really not sure what it is called. Sad but it is nature, what can we do. One thing I know, is in photography you basically show wildlife off to the world and this guy will be remembered on the internet for ever, still pretty cool to me.
Here in this shot, another one that does have that disease but I like this shot regardless, it could be better but love the details on the tail.
In this shot here, it is the same hummingbird as the one above and just another cool shot for this guy to be on the internet forever. Also with my color shots are the black and white versions, some I like and some I messed up and didn't get some noise out of them but I must post them with for I love black and white shots and always will sine high school. Hope you all enjoyed these shots, thanks for stopping by and to all have a blessed Sunday.
Anyways appreciate everyone feedback hope you have enjoyed my shots and post today' thanks for stopping by, Have a blessed one and thank you for coming in and checking out my shot's of the day. Stay tuned and enjoy my future shots in the world of photography, thru my lens.
