Today's hummer shoot cont. - 07-10-2011, 09:01 PM
Critique: CC:

I went out this evening for another attempt at the hummingbirds. Same setup as my post from this morning, but this time I also added a little off camera flash from a 430EX & mini softbox at low camera right. By the time the birds started coming to my flower set they were in shadow so I had to bump the ISO and slow down the shutter a little. Still more work to do with them.
