Orange Chakra

Orange Chakra - It was a challenge photographing the Allen's Hummingbirds out at the coast. They were shyer than previous years, so I had to stay very still and time my photography with when the clouds covered the sun just right to get that nice overcast diffused light. I spent about 4 hours standing in the same spot to capture this particular pose on a nice perch.
