Hummingbird in Flight – Photomontage

Mar 5, 2010 | Animals & Wildlife, Photo Art & Montage

Photographing hummingbirds can become a very exhausting venture. But if you are prepared and know what to do, you’ll get some amazing shots.. Simplest way to capture these elusive birds is to wait by a bird feeder. Since most birds are easily spooked you’ll need to use a telephoto lens from a distance to get a good close-up shot. You’ll also need a flash to help catch your bird in flight. Without a flash, you might end up with a blurry image. I was able to get plenty of great shots. But this was the only photo I processed. Using a couple of textures I turned it into a photomontage.
