I will not give up...

I am still attempting a perfect shot of a hummingbird. Tonight I played rotten and took all the feeders down except one, lol...Easier to focus on one feeder instead of three...Then I played with my white balance a bit. I should have left the white balance on auto as I don't think I am experienced enough and did NOT have it set right!
This is what I came up with tonight!

Black-chinned hummingbird

I thought the tail feathers spread out were pretty cool.


loved the wing action on this exposure.


Berryline hummingbird.

( I loved the colors on this and no I did not adjust it in PSE 6). What you see is what you get!

I'll keep playing with the camera and continue to try for that perfect hummer photo!!

ohhh these are fantastic. I too love the spread tail feathers! And the colors! So vibrant! Shame on you for taking down all but one feeder just to get a photo! But man, it sure did work didn't it!

Yay for Michael and his clipper cut!!! WAHOOOOOOOOO!
