    Hummingbirds

    Here are a few Buff Belly Hummingbird photos I took yesterday (Nikon D200 with an off-camera SB600 flash):

    Nice shots! I am amazed that the wings come out that good at 1/60sec. I checked the first one of the second group. The hummingbird shot I posted recently was 1/1250sec, Jeff

    Great shots. I have been trying to get a shot of the female but she is camera shy.
