The Sip & Go

Uploaded: June 30, 2005

Description

Taken at High Noon, the harsh lighting helped get the shutter speed fast enough to stop most of the action.

I love this shot! I watch the humming birds in my back yard with ahhh. Thinking it would be so cool to capture their amazing speed and you did it so well here. I love the contrast of the dropped green in the background and the bright red and orange of the feeder. The colors really give this capture some punch. Great job.

Thank you everyone for the nice comments.

I'm heading up that way again this weekend...so here is hoping for some nice weather and subjects that will be nice enough to work with me again.

I'm going to try to use my tripod, and have the camera tethered to my laptop so I can shoot from a distance, yet get some interesting close-ups. #1539435
