This morning I sat on the patio enjoying a cup of Vaneli’s Vienna roast coffee along with the morning cool that I knew would not last more than an hour or so. Of course I had my camera at my side and when the hummingbird flitted about chattering that I should leave to let him bathe in his fountain in peace, I decided to wait him out. And, he waited me out. He won but I got my photo for the day. Today’s theme is waiting.
I bumped up the ISO to 400 because the area where he perched was in deep shade and I cropped the shot and made a few exposure tweaks as well.
Focal Length 300mm
ISO 400
f/5.6
1/60
Wow! Those colors, the details, the composition- perfection! Definitely worth the wait!
