A white-tailed eagle plummeting through a Japanese sky, a brown pelican striking a silhouette against an Ecuadorian sunset, an Atlantic puffin carrying its fish dinner above the Scottish coast, or a keel-billed toucan gliding through a Costa Rican jungle canopy; readers will marvel at the splendour of birds in flight while learning the techniques to capture these gravity-defying moments from a world-class nature photographer. For each picture, author and photographer Peter Cavanagh shares his most evocative thoughts: the challenges of the shoot, the beauty of the location, and the curiosities of the species. Bird people will enjoy the bird photographs and facts, travelers will gobble up the tales of distant parts, and photographers will absorb the technical details. For instance, readers might be surprised to see that a very slow shutter speed can freeze the motion of hummingbird wings. Peter Cavanagh has collected 100 beautiful photos spanning a wide range of species. The subjects of each of the 11 chapters are: Eagles; Hummingbirds; Gulls and Terns; Small Waterbirds; Large Waterbirds; Ducks, Geese and Swans; Raptors; Condors and Corvids; Cranes; Songbirds"--Publisher's description. 650 0 $a Birds $x Flight $v Pictorial works. 650 0 $a Birds $x Flight. 650 0 $a Photography of birds. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20230302020455.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=BF51E796A39211ED924352D529ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
