Autumn art

This technique was inspired by a fellow photographer http://rogernordstromphoto.blogspot.com/2010/09/fall-abstracts.html and I decided to try my luck. I twisted and zoomed at the same time during the exposure at this patch of sumac.


And got these...

My day today 9-4-2010

Set up the camera outside my office window, ran my long shutter-release cable in and took some fun pics of the hummingbirds at the feeder. At times there were 4 or 5 birds dive-bombing each other and making a bunch of noise!

Then I went out and set up my blind in a known big buck area! None today, but stay tuned!

As the sun set, the colors came alive.
