Jamaica - flora and fauna


The red-billed swallow-tail hummingbird is the national bird of Jamaica. I photographed this one with a Nikon D800 and 70-200mm f/4 zoom.  The ISO was set to 640, which allowed me to set a shutter speed of 1/2000 second -- enough to freeze the bird's wings.

Right after photographing this conch shell at sunset I was swamped by a wave and dropped the Nikon D800 in the surf. I picked it up, toweled it off, and kept on shooting.  Nothing like a Nikon Pro body for durability.
