This was a photo workshop lead by Joe McNally and Tamara Lackey, both very well known, accomplished photographers. Joe is known for his use of supplementary lights on location, and brought a number of light modifiers for us to try out. We alternated between photo shoots with professional models and wildlife excursions. It was the rainy season so we often used the afternoon rains to be indoors doing classes and critiques.
The photo below was shot in the hummingbird garden at the El Silencio Hotel in the Cloud Forest Region. Unlike hummingbirds around a feeder these birds flitted between hundreds of flowers, rarely perching for more than a few seconds.
