Palms of His Hands

"Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it." ~ William Arthur Ward

• Jul. 16, 2006 - "My" Hummingbird

I've received a couple of questions about my hummingbird at the top of the page, so here are my answers...

 

Yes, I took the picture using a friend's very, very nice camera.  We had gone to north Mississippi to visit with our friends the Rice's, and my friend Penny had this really neat digital camera she let me "play" with.  I don't know how many hours off and on I spent near the lantana trying to capture that hummingbird.  I know I took nearly 500 pictures (of everything) during the three days we were there.  (Ahh, the beauty of digital!).  I got some really good shots of this little fellow and a black swallowtail and a mocking bird trying to build a nest above my head. (I even got some great shots of my girls.LOL!)  I hope to post some more pictures later.  I cropped and enlarged this one at the top and added writing using a basic Paint program.

 

I've always loved photography, but have never been able to afford a really nice camera.  I so enjoyed using this one.  (It is a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ30.)  I now have lots to scrap book! (So many pictures and so little time *sigh*.)

 

I hope everyone is having a blessed day.

P.S.  Thanks again, Penny!

I just got into photography myself in the last year or so, and it sure is addictive! Love the shot....digital camera's are definitely the way to go. I am so behind on my scrapbooking. Too bad we didn't live a little closer, we could have a Scrap Fest..lol!
