That's what makes it fun.<BR/><BR/>Flowers are definately easier to photograph than birds though. The birds must have been off celebrating Father's Day somewhere else because they didn't stop by as much as they usually do according to my parents.Craig Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15441805063163359816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6374347681415696642.post-32030069979033539412008-06-17T12:59:00.000-04:002008-06-17T12:59:00.000-04:00Consider this a learning experience then. Now you...Consider this a learning experience then. Now you know what won't work as well the next time you go out to get birds.<BR/><BR/>I like the way the hydrenias came out though.

In fact, I'm not sure they're seen much around Central NY.<BR/><BR/>I love watching the birds, feeding them and taking their pictures. I wish the gray squirrels weren't so shy. I haven't been able to get very close to them to get good shots.<BR/><BR/>Hummingbirds aren't too terribly shy. You might be able to shoot them sitting outside on the patio a reasonable distance from the feeder.... Maybe 10 yards or just slightly less. I was standing outside near the hummingbird feeder one evening and they would fly in. Unfortunately, I wasn't in a very good position to focus on them good. They move way too fast! I plan on setting up the hummingbird feeder on a shepherd's hook and sit comfortably on a chair nearby to take some photos. If I get around to doing that, I'll post my results.John Brainardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08539042020140186078noreply@blogger.com
