Here is two shots I just postprocessed, up close and personal. with the Canon 500d I believe......... {} View attachment 9704
Hey Keith, great shots, was it the 70-200VR and the 500D? You've got to get within two feet with that combo, your the man. Pete
Just incredible Would love to give your setup a try at my place just hung two feeders so hopefully in a few weeks they start showing up
Okay, give. how in the heck do you get within two feet of a hummer and have it pose for you? Really well done Keith :lol:
Hi Mike It is an easy set up, cant go wrong. Try buying some color paper and paint your background, if you dont and you shoot, many times you will have a black background as your lightset up is brighter than the ambient light. Those shots are cool to! Let me know when they show up, sure wish we had them around here, the entertainment value alone is fun, and boy are they small. LOL
Thanks Rory... I just rented a large hummer outfit :wink: After 3 days of being one on one with them, they just got use to me. Day 1 and 2 not a chance............got to luv it when a plan comes together :lol:
all right, now I give. WTH is a huge hummer outfit? I can only imagine renting one of thos machines you get in that is full of money blown around...... except with hummers of course.... :^)
Nice shots, Keith! I have never had much luck with the hummers. They are so mean to each other around here that they spend all of their time chasing the others away. Anyway, it's past season now in Houston, so I think I need to take the feeders down. Gary
Hi Dave...... You floor me, LOL :lol: :lol: :lol: If you ever come this way, you got to let me know, would luv to shoot with you!!! Keith
Hi Gary..... they are quite the characters, and as you said, they are very territorial. I could watch them for hours...............well the nice thing, their is always next season!!! thanks for looking Keith
