Snacking in the shade. by William Brennan

I caught this little Peck’s skimmer snacking on nectar between the taller grass near the road by my house in NJ. I managed to navigate my lens around the grass and got this shady shot of my little friend. He was fairly oblivious of my presence and I was actually able to lightly pet the little guy without him even noticing. He was really into his meal. :)
I used a Nikon D3100 and a Nikon 85mm macro lens.
Please view it LARGE! =)

I’ve always appreciated nature, but I didn’t show interest in photography until digital started to come into it’s own. I had many cheap cameras over the years, but when I got the Nikon D3100 for my birthday last year, I really started to realize what photography was all about. I’ve had such a blast learning on the go over the past 10 months. I’ve gotten shots that I could have only dreamed of a year ago. I hope you all enjoy my photos, and by all means, BUY SOMETHING! =)
