My 2023 Images - September

September was a month of bird photography for me.  After being inspired by a visiting bird photographer from the UK, Mark Went (Art Studio Wild), I made time just to get out and photograph birds artistically, and not just in a documentary style.  A planned morning of strictly bird photography with a few members of our local photographic club, The Barbados Photographic Society, also helped in that endeavor.  You may notice for the second month in a row the focus was on shorebirds, my favorite subject, which may change in the coming months as I try to balance documenting the arrival of migratory songbirds and planning and preparing photo excursions in the ever-decreasing spare time I have available. As you may know, my tools of choice are trusty Canon 7D II, Candace II, and a Sigma 150-600mm 5-6.3 Contemporary DG OS HSM, also known as Big Selma, and edited the photos with Lightroom 5.  I hope you will enjoy the images and feel free to contact me for prints or otherwise.
