Location
This photo was taken right here on Haida Gwaii.Every year the same Hummingbird returns to my backyard.Time
This photo was taken early evening.When I have the best light of the day to work with.Lighting
I also go with natural light.So there is no need for edting.Equipment
I used a Sony DSC-HX300 for this pic,as it has a big zoom 50x.I balanced it on the windowsill.Inspiration
I was inspired by the sheer beauty of the incredible little Hummingbird.Editing
The only post -processing used is to sharpen the photo a little.In my camera bag
Now the only equipment I carry is a Nikon D7100 and a sony a 6000Feedback
When photography birds one need to be extremely patient .It pays off and also wait for the right lighting conditions and just have fun.I love birds..
