Thanx! Fortuitous captures!


Well, yeah but you have to be there, ready for what shows up! Almost all of my photos are fortuitous to some extent, but it would never happen if I wasn't primed and ready to go!
Not just anyone with a camera would have been able to capitalize on this encounter. Don't sell yourself short, Tim! You did good!!

Far North of its usual range- Southern California and Mexico. Individuals have been photographed as far north as Alaska!

Taken at Tacoma's Point Defiance Zoo. This bird was Not on exhibit!

The flower this particular Hummer was so very interested in is a Baby Sage.

#2 through #7 is the same bird, same flower, different wing positions. Note the yellow pollen on his upper beak!

Z9, 500pF, 1/3200, f 5.6, ISO 2800. I like the look of the blurred wings.

Zoo visit was a bust. Few animals on display, too many women pushing strollers! Could not enter some venues due to the number of strollers blocking the way!

Download and enjoy!
