Flowers
Nipomo, California 2009

I was out in my mother-in-law’s garden photographing flowers in the early evening when a hummingbird flew right in front of me.

I quickly took a few snapshots of the hummingbird. Only a couple turned out good enough to share here. A pity.

The next day I went out in the garden again and followed the sounds of the hummingbirds. Unfortunately, they stayed mostly high in the trees. Only one actually flew in front of a flower but unfortunately all the pictures I took of it turned out fuzzy. A disappointment, really.
