From My Backyard
DRAWING A PHOTO, Fourth Part: My Frustration
Fourth Part: My Frustration
Teaneck, Bergen County, New Jersey
I was testing different configurations, always manual, which did not make it easy because they moved a lot and there were areas of shade and sun, besides it was unpredictable when they would unite their tiny beaks, so the tripod would not help much. I tried several times and stubbornly rushed to take the photo at the first opportunity. I was anxious that I did not know how many more days I would have the opportunity to obtain that photo. The ones I had taken did not pass my own quality filter, some very dark, some were damaged by ISO and others burned because they united their tiny beaks in a very illuminated area and the configuration was for a shaded area. Others were poorly focused even if I had the autofocus activated and so on. This is my third sip of coffee; it is still warm... It must also be said that I did not have all day to take the photo because I had the responsibility to work from home during confinement.
