(I can't see the bird flying unless it's on black... I have NO IDEA why! If you can see it ok without going to black, would you let me know? )
We're up the coast visiting the grandkids while their folks get away for a short holiday. The day began with heavy rain, but the hummers came again and again to the feeder just outside the front window. After lots of single shots, I realized this clean backdrop was made for another gif image. Thank you for the great reception you gave Posh the other day, and I hope you'll enjoy this as much! The sun broke through at 1 and we took the boys to a birthday party at a train museum; it's been a delightful day!
@stray_shooter All I could think was that he's drinking the rain running off the side of the feeder... I ought to have explained that, as I fully understand the confusion! haha
@allie912http://www.photoscape.org/ps/main/index.php Alli, this is a free download site I got several years ago. I use it almost exclusively for the few times I make a gif image, and you'll see clearly what you need to open in it to do that. My images are mostly a 7-shot series, but they're best if it's conceivably what the subject might look like if it's in a loop. (Walking left to right looks awkward if it plays again and again). For people on 365 who don't have squirrels or hummingbirds, it's a nice way to share what they look like in action! Let me know if you'd like any further assistance!
@Weezilou I can see the still image on white and when I tap the picture to get it to move it takes it into black. Lovely video . It's great to see this clever little bird just hanging there! Such control with their wings! Good to see you are up with the boys! Have a great week! What a fun time you will be having! Fav!
I can see it on both. I always love your gif posts! Thank you for including the link for the download...you did give it to me once before and I still haven't created one. That is definitely something I MUST do! It's wonderful that you're enjoying a fun visit with your grandkids. :-)
@catsmeowb Good News! No need for Photoshop, Camille! Go back half-way up thecomments, and there's a link to a free (and super simple) site that lets you make these gif images! Just shoot a burst of 7 or more, and thet's all there is to it! Let me know when I can see what YOU post!
@homeschoolmom Weird, isn't it? Among the comments, some see both and some only on black! I took it down and reposted it when I thought something was *wrong*... Guess it's just *odd*!
@pcarlaw You're REALLY boggles me! I have no idea!
@cjphoto Amazingly, Chris, I slowed it down a little so the way the wings move would be clear to those who've never seen them in flight! Thanks for liking it!
