Parrots are such beautiful birds. I happen to have two of them who literally own me. So, I decided to take some pictures upstairs in my studio of my beautiful parrots. They were very cooperative. I used a speed light, LED flashlight, shot into an umbrella. Cord attached to the stand with the speed light and to my camera hot shoe. I used a second umbrella on the other side with a reflector. No tripod was needed. I was pretty pleased with the results.
Animals
These Animal photos are very varied. Some, such as the snake and duck, are from Phinizy Swamp–a beautiful nature preserve in Augusta, GA. As you can see, I am luck enough to have two gorgeous parrots–A Red Sided Eclectus and a Ruby Macaw. The dogs were taken at Clarks Hill Lake, in Augusta.
