Thanks Alex.Very nice. Never seen one in these parts.
Thanks Andy, checked my pbase gallery, not sure why you can not see it.I can't see the first one but the second one is very good!
Thanks Alan, still working on my compostion to.I see them both
As I'm several thousand miles from the nearest wild hummingbird I'm always jealous of shots like these. I prefer the colour to the B&W - I always do for bird photos. I think the second might look better with a gentler crop, giving a little more space above and in front of the bird; this would get the eye nearer to the centre of the image and give a stronger composition.

Hello Sweetpea,What shutter speed are you using and are you also using flash.
Me too.Can't see either![]()

I have them hosted through pbase. I do not know what is going on. Thanks for letting me know, I'll check into it. I can see them?Me too.
Very nice shots, I plan on setting up a feeder this weekend to attract the local hummers. Forgive my ignorance but what is a "B&W"? Also did you get these hand held or off a tripod.I had my D200 set on shutter priority @ 1/800th with a flash on the B&W, and 1/800th w/o flash on the color photo. I was using my Nikon 300f4. If I remember correctly, both of these were 50% crops.
Thanks for checking.

Thanks for checking them out Lil. I was trying out a B&W PP technique, and, why not?Hi George,
Nice shots.
your focus is dead on on the B&W. But why shoot a hummer in B&W? I'm not sure I get it.
Thanks for sharing
Lil
You're right, why not B&W. Guess that since I feed about 30+ of them all the time I am just so used to seeing them in color. Never really entered my mind to shoot them B&W.Thanks for checking them out Lil. I was trying out a B&W PP technique, and, why not?
Thanks for checking them out Jeff, I don't know what is going on. I had my daughter check from her computer and she showed x's also.17 & 21 are wall hangers. Nice images. Went to Pbase, still can't see them here.
