In the effort to catch one of the local hummingbirds in the golden sunset light, I often get photos that “miss” as they take off flit about, feed, fight, and harass each other.
It occurred to me that some of these “failed” photos actually had a certain beauty of their own, silhouettes of patterns both natural and artificial.
Part of it’s the light, but there’s also an element of a fractal design rendered in branch, stem, and leaf.
Perhaps these are the great pictures from that set and the ones with the annoying birds interfering with the patterns are the ones to toss.
It’s all a matter of perspective.
