I took this photo at Patuxent Wildlife Refuge in Laurel, MD. These guys were everywhere. Extremely enjoyable to watch.Time
This was taken on a Saturday around 2:00pm in August.Lighting
I wanted to catch these guys as best I could as they’re super fast and hard to get good photos of. I used a fast shutter speed to capture their wings best way possible.Equipment
I used a Nikon D5500 with 70-300mm lense.Inspiration
I love hummingbirds. Their energy draws me to them and I alway find myself smiling watching them.Editing
I didn’t do anything with this photo besides a crop to cut out some of the background.In my camera bag
Just my Nikon D5500 and 70-300mm lens and 35-70mm lens.Feedback
Just try to have your shutter speed as fast as possible to capture their wings so they’re not blurry.
