Good evening Hive family and all the photographers lovers around the world, what I got here for you all tonight is some more shot's of a Anna's Hummingbird, that I had captured at a new place. This is Rob's Field as a few of my past posts have been featuring some new birds and here some birds I have captured before but some good better quality ones on this trip. What was kind of funny is I wasn't even searching for this guy here, I was seeing a Osprey flying in circles when I was shooting the Burrowing Owl. So I decided to walk down to see if I can get some shots of him catching a fish and it would be a different type of fish, so that's why it was peaking my interest. As I was watching the Osprey do its thing, I look right in front of me but a bit to my left and this guy was right there, so close to me I go side tracked on the Osprey and started snapping away and moving my positions. As I was doing that I missed the Osprey dive but they wouldn't of been good shot's for it was far into the wash area but in the corner of my eye I saw something big coming my direction and bang there it was with a fish coming my way. I got off about ten in flight shot's, so maybe I post those one of these days but not sure at this point.
Now let's get back to the Anna's Humming bird, the top shot, the cover is my favorite shot of them all, The detail and the coloring on this one just bangs on this image in my opinion and yes a little help from Lightroom never hurt nobody. They say photography is an art, well yeah technically it is because nobody really posts RAW shot's, so in a sense your as good as your shot but as good as your edits too. As for the second shot here down below, another favorite and I didn't make it pop as much as the cover shot but sure is a beauty here. I think Hummingbirds are so nice and to be able to shoot them, get some good detail is always a great time in my opinion.
Another cool shot here and this Hummingbird is looking mad or determined to go chase off another Hummingbird, they are so territorial is craze but then I've see video of many in the same spot and not. Kind of weird but they make their own rules I suppose.
Now for the last shot, the only shot I have, for some reason I stopped editing them in different color backgrounds etc, and I didn't even make a black and white version but I will post it because its face looks real angry or something. I really don't like the color of the background, so I'm not sure why I messed up on making more. Maybe I did one and stopped for the night and then when I came back the next day I missed where I had finished off at the night before, not sure but sounds like it. Anyways hope you enjoyed tonight's post, glad you all came through and I hope you all liked the shot's. Thank you and have blessed one.
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.
