Warm up the Cameras
Time to start serious practicing with my camera, for shooting in nights, compromised lighting. In short, get ready for AX and also a try at the bird sanctuary. To get birds, you have to be prepared and fast. It's a thrill for me to get a bird in flight. Sunday I saw a hummingbird feeding off of flowers-- he was so beautiful, but the lighting was so bad, he would have looked like a dark black big bug. When we first moved to California, a heard a loud zzzing noise and turned around to see the biggest flying thing coming at me! I tried to swat it and ran, terrified. I was thinking , what do they grow out here. When Big M came home, he laughed and said "You were trying to swat a humming bird1" I had never seen one, and the light was behind the bird, so he looked like a black bug. Some of the hummingbirds are olive green, some brown, but others shimmer-- do you have humming birds where you live?

We'll be dry today, Monday more rain... but spring has sprung. The biggest poppies are growing alongside the highways, and in places hard to photograph---I hope we get more of them. But in true otaku spirit, a cherry blossom.:



Wishing good friends rainbows in the mornings!
