100 Flying Birds: Photographing the Mechanics of Flight offers a
vivid and varied glimpse into the world of birds. 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, travellers 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 & Terns ; Small Waterbirds ; Large
Waterbirds ; Ducks, Geese and Swans ; Raptors ; Condors and Corvids
; Cranes ; Songbirds ; Favourites.
