Goofing Around with a Camera

[ever_maedhros]

I'm learning to love goofing off and just snapping whatever catches my fancy. I think I'll probably start taking more pictures of hummingbirds than anything else--they're so fascinating. :)







(If anybody wants to save/use these, feel free! They're up for grabs.)

Pretty! That is an awesome zoom lense you've got there!

Thank you! Me, my brother, and my mom pooled our money into getting it. :)

Really pretty photographs! Do you have a sort of nectar-feeder for the hummingbirds? We don't have them in the wild here obvs., but that's so cool that you can just attract them to your garden!

You mean what we put into the feeder itself? My mom just boils sugar in water, waits for it to cool, and then pours it through a funnel into the feeder. Simple, inexpensive, and effective. :)

One of my great uncles has a very elaborate feeder that looks like a sprawling bouquet of flowers, and in the mornings, you can see a small army of hummingbirds hovering around it. It's breathtaking!

Thank you! Most of the credit goes to the amazing lens, not to me. :)
