In the cloud forest of Costa Rica there are many cool plants, and usually overcast conditions. This scenario allowed me to get this cool photo of a Volcano Hummingbird once the sun broke through the clouds just enough to enable a virtually black and white photo. I found the bird stood out well and this plant gave the photo some fantastic character.

Nature photography has become a very passionate hobby of mine and whenever I get a chance I love to get outside and enjoy being outdoors. I am also the co-owner of KGM Expressions, a wedding and portrait photography business, with my wife Kim. This is how we make our living and I love that we get to do that together.
