Artist's Comments

So, a short series of shots of hummingbirds. Cheated with these, set up next to the feeder instead of finding flower patches (which are quickly vanishing). Most of the birds were young, so they don't yet have spectacular coloring. Mostly manual focusing as the AF can't keep up. Low light for most shots, so with a few theres minor focus or movement issues.

I'm typically not one for pictures of birds, but wow.

Thanks. I personally don't like this as much as a few of the others in the series, but figured it was still worthy to upload. lol

What can I say?
Long Lens yes, Motion Yes, Crisp Image Yes, Separation from background really well done.

Only thing I see is the your blown out highlight on the tail, which assuming you shot in raw you could easily recover by adjusting your levels.
