Recently, I spent the afternoon shooting hummingbirds in Arizona. We hung a feeder on a second floor balcony for a bird portrait feeding station (thanks Pete!!) By high noon, the feeder/portrait sitting station was ready for business. We had quite a few different clients fly in for the afternoon sitting. Some did not like the flash equipment (a total of 3 flashes were used) while others naturally strutted their stuff in front of the camera. There was a beautiful red head who flew away. But there was one in particular that I have a suspicion announced to the bird world he was calling this feeder his own...
Shot in collaboration with Peter. You can see more of the shoot here: (
