Sep 04, 2012 04:33 | #10 Thank you all for the kind words! Almondsaz wrote in post #14944050 They are both terrific captures, I like the second one best. The wing spread and the detail to the wings is great. Did you use a flash to stop the wings? I was told that was the only way to stop the movement for the photo...look forward to hearing if you did. What lens? No flash. The hummer was semi perched so it's wing speed was slower than normal. Lens is a 70-300L.
