I prefer to keep my ss above 1/1000 when ever possible. Here is one I could not under the available lighting. I hope you like:-)

There will be days when you get the shot(s) you missed days, months or years before.

I like it. I like wing blur like prop blur. I did however buy several flashes with the intention of freezing the wings. Unfortunately, I'm lacking hummingbirds to shoot this year. Not sure why.

You really don't need a flash(es) to get freezing of the wings. Thanks for your reply BK.

The voices in my head may not be real, but they come up with some great ideas.
