Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo on a farm in a town in Colombia, it is a farm that helps to conserve hummingbirds, so it is full of them, it is a magical place.

Time

It was a sunny morning, a good temperature, and with many birds flying around.

Lighting

As I said before it was a sunny morning, so the light is natural, it was against the light, and it is that light that makes the photo come to life that way.

Equipment

The photo was taken with my Sony dschx-350 camera.

Inspiration

Hummingbirds have always caught my attention, their way of moving, the speed of their wings, their colors and how fragile they can be, I wanted to take this photo so that people can enjoy this little animal, and I think this photo says a lot about them, it's a photo that you can almost hear, that's where the name I gave it comes from.

Editing

The only process that takes the photo is in lightroom, and it is a dark vignette to give that touch to the photo and highlight a little more the silhouette.

In my camera bag

In my backpack I always carry a travel tripod, neutral density filters and extra batteries.

Feedback

My advice is to be very patient, not to despair, and the light has to be adequate to take this type of photos since the shot has to be fast enough to be able to freeze the wings depending on what you want to show in the image.
