And the hummers haven't been coming when the light is best but arriving later in the evening in the gloaming which makes lighting really problematic. Still, here are two takes on hummingbirds in the twilight: http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Howard+Cummer/SummerCanada2011/HumClrW.jpg.html http://tinyurl.com/5ttlroa This is with the GH2, hand held, with the 100 - 300 panasonic at 300mm f7.1, 1/4000, and ISO 5000. The light was so nearly monochromatic that I transformed the picture into Black and White here: http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Howard+Cummer/SummerCanada2011/HumB_amp_Ww.jpg.html http://tinyurl.com/3k3ztv9 I wonder which you prefer? C&C always welcome Howard (still in hummer land)
