Having an expert to guide me through this genre of outdoor photography has a lot of advantages on top of learning fast and seeing more. Since I shoot alone most of the time, learning follows an undefined curve. But every moment that comes is different and profound each time. It’s like a communion with the wondrous natural world and its Creator in my experience.
Yesterday, I had a brief encounter with a bird I had long dreamed to see. I never thought that it would be so small, especially from afar. It exhibits characteristics that are unique in many ways. It scouts for food around a trunk, from top to bottom, with head first. It’s cute, fast, and gone in seconds ☺️
