In class on Tuesday we discussed how red is a color that is often the first thing you notice in a photograph. In looking for inspirations for my own photo for our other assignment, I found this picture on the North American Nature Photography Association's website.
The thing I immediately noticed about the picture (probably in part due to our classtime on Tuesday) was the bright red on the bird's wing tips. In an otherwise pretty grey photo, they were the first things my eyes went to, along with the bird's bright yellow tail. Unfortunately, I don't know that I would have the patience to capture a picture such as this one. When taking pictures, I tend to get "click happy" for five minutes, get cold/ready to do something else and miss the chance to get something cool like a bird eating a berry. I'm excited for our trip to Yellowstone to hopefully force myself to sit still and watch nature.
