... Make lemonade. Or at least try.
This was taken back in September on one of my first trips to the lake with my then new 30D and a rented 100-400 trying to get egret or heron shots. I'm sitting in a little clump of trees on the shore line trying to be as unobtrusive as I can make myself. Still a little blurry eyed and trying to finish my coffee I hear something buzzing around. My eyes finally catch up to the source of the hummmmm and I get all excited. This little hummer is flying in and out of minimum focus distance, there's no light because it's still 6:30 in the morning, but I'm following him around like there's no tomorrow. I got several "Shots" if you want to call them that... Of course everything was way underexposed so I tried to make something out of nothing here.
Curious if you all think I made it all the way to lemonade or not.
